Complementing the lens itself, the FUJIFILM GF 250mm f/4 R LM OIS WR Lens with UV Filter Kit from B&H bundles the telephoto prime with an 82mm UV filter.

FUJIFILM GF 250mm f/4 R LM OIS WR Lens

A medium telephoto prime characterized by its sophisticated optical design, the GF 250mm f/4 R LM OIS WR from FUJIFILM is a 197.5mm-equivalent lens for the G-mount GFX camera system. Offering a mixture of long reach and a relatively bright f/4 maximum aperture, this lens is well-suited to isolating subject matter and working with shallow depth of field techniques. Complementing the visual compression of the telephoto focal length is an advanced optical layout, which uses one Super ED element and two extra-low dispersion elements to control color fringing and chromatic aberrations for a high degree of clarity and color accuracy.

In addition to its optical assets, this lens is also distinguished by its five stop-effective image stabilization system that Minimizes the appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld imagery. It also features a linear autofocus motor that is both quick and quiet, and an internal focusing mechanism limits the overall lens length during use as well as maintains consistent image quality throughout the focusing range. The lens's magnesium-alloy build is also dust-, freeze-, and weather-resistant.

Chiaro Pro 82mm 98-UVATS UV Filter

The Pro 82mm 98-UVATS UV Filter is one of Chiaro’s highest-rated protective UV filters with 98% light transmission. It’s ideal for photographers of all levels who demand high-quality glass and other essential features for excellent image fidelity and construction.

To achieve 98% light transmission, Chiaro uses highly-polished optical glass, multi-coating, and additional advanced elements that improve the filter’s light transmission. A scratch-resistant coating minimizes scratching of the glass and helps assure that water, oil, dust, and fingerprints are removed with a gentle wipe. Its hard-anodized aluminum filter ring is designed to screw on and off effortlessly, and it is thin to prevent vignetting when used with wide-angle lenses. Side knurling helps assure that you’ll have a firm grip when attaching or removing your filter.

Image quality is what matters most at Chiaro. The company has tested and combined many features and essentials to achieve superior image quality and the highest light transmission. To help take the confusion out of selecting a filter, Chiaro prominently displays the light transmission levels so that you can choose the perfect filter for your lens and photo session.

98% Light Transmission
Protecting your lens doesn't mean you have to lose optical quality. By using highly-polished optical glass and advanced coatings, Chiaro offers a 98% transmission rate, which is an excellent transmission rate for glass. And the company verifies the ratings with ISO certified lab testing.
Resistance Coating
The layers of advanced resistance coating on the filter are designed to resist moderate scratches, and allow you to easily clean your filter. Water beads up and rolls off your filter, and oil and fingerprints can come off with a gentle wipe. Dust and debris won't adhere to the filter and can be removed with a puff of air.
Polished Optical Glass
Glass that's polished to perfection is essential to achieve a high level of light transmission. The optical glass in this Chiaro filter is highly-polished for flatness that ensures excellent optical clarity.
Multi-Coating
Multi-coating enhances light transmission to the demanding level set for all Chiaro filters. It reduces unwanted internal reflections and ghosting that can compromise your images.
UV Protection
The filter blocks UV light and reduces the bluish cast of daylight that can affect color accuracy, especially at higher altitudes.
Hard Anodized Aluminum Construction
The process of hard anodizing toughens and strengthens the aluminum for a lightweight yet durable filter ring.
Slim Design
Measuring only 3.2mm, this filter is slim enough to use on wide-angle lenses without experiencing vignetting.
Top and Side Knurling
In addition to top knurling, Chiaro added side knurling to better grip the filter when you're attaching and removing it, or when you're stacking filters.
Secure Attachment
It takes two full turns to mount the filter on your lens. This feature will securely hold your Chiaro filter through the most demanding photo shoots.
Front Threads
The front threads on the filter allow you to stack filters by screwing them onto your Chiaro filter.

Unrivaled image quality!

By Kevin
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2021-11-12

I had originally ordered the GF100-200 f/5.6 as a longish telephoto for my GFX100S. It was light and convenient due to the zoom range. There was nothing wrong with the images it produced per se. But it didn't wow me with the image quality the 100S sensor is capable of. So I returned it and ordered the GF250mm f/4. It is a beast of a lens both in diameter and heft. Although I don't find it too unwieldy with the ergos of the 100S. Focus with the linear motor is surprisingly quick considering the mass of glass being moved around. The image stabilization, combined with the internal IS of the camera is remarkable. Hand holding at 1/30 second with good form yields pin sharp images. Describing the image quality has to go well beyond acute sharpness though. There is a smooth, etherial quality to the way this lens renders. It could best be compared to the way the GF110 f/2 captures an image with a compelling render that draws you into the scene. A few negatives you should consider though. The weight is not something you would want to carry around for very long. The size of it can be a little intimidating to people if you're just doing street corner photography. But to me the main issue with this lens is the foot mount. It doesn't have a Swiss/Arca milling in it. So you have to add one. That just makes it heavier and more of a handful to hold. Second, and most importantly. The rotation lock knob on the mount doubles as a release. When you loosen it and pull it outward, the lens will fall out. I've read reports of it dropping when the knob is inadvertently pulled. There is no good reason for this to be possible and I wish FUJIFILM would correct it. Especially for what this lens costs! But I have no regrets at all about buying the GF250mm otherwise!

Film guy goes digital

So you know where I'm coming from: Shot medium format film in the 80's and 90's. Loved the image quality. And because of that experience, I couldn't bring myself to buy a digital camera that was only full frame that cost more than my Mamiya 645! Not trying to start any arguments here, I think digital full frame image quality is generally better than 35mm film, but I still couldn't buy it. Finally, with the Fuji 50R, I found a price point and a cropped medium format compromise I could live with. The Fuji 32-64 and this 250 are the 2 sharpest lenses I've ever owned. The image stabilization on the 250 is fabulous. Even with the 1.4 teleconverter(sorry it's not 1.9 or 2), I have taken seemingly impossible hand held shots at 1/30th of a second. To an old film guy, that's impressive. The engine image is a straight-out-of-the-camera jpg that has been resized for upload, but look at the severe crop of the front where one can easily read where the toolbox is. This is a handheld shot with the 1.4 teleconverter on a moving train. Auto focus and OIS on, F9, 1/180, ISO 400. I can live that.
