Long-reaching yet lightweight, the FUJIFILM XF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 R LM OIS WR is a versatile 107-457mm-equivalent telephoto zoom positioned to be an ideal companion for long-range outdoor shooting. Ideally suited for landscape, wildlife, and nature photography, this zoom features a versatile feature-set, including 5.5 stop-effective OIS to help reduce camera shake, unique close-focusing capabilities for working with nearby subjects, and fast AF performance due to a smooth, quiet linear motor.

Optically, this lens features a pair of extra-low dispersion elements and one aspherical element to correct a variety of aberrations and realize a high degree of sharpness and clarity.

FUJIFILM XF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 R LM OIS WR Reviews
Excellent telephoto
Beautiful, picture quality, reasonably priced, light and good size. B&H always does excellent job, came in impeccable condition.
The Best Lens I own!
Works great with my FujiFilm X-S10. Pictures are super sharp. Photos attached were taken on my community walkaround today. (300mm/200iso at 1/500) hand held.
Excellent Telephoto Lens
I purchased this lens as an upgrade to my Fuji 55-200mm. I feel that it is a better companion to my Fuji 16-80mm as it has less overlap on the short end and gives me the extra reach on the long end. In terms of size and weight it is only about a half inch longer than the 55-200mm and weighs about the same. Even so, I do not feel that this lens is of any lower build quality. Optically this lens is easily on par with my Fuji 100-400mm over the same range. It is noticeably better than the than the 55-200mm, specifically beyond 135mm where the older lens does show some softness. The OIS performance is also improved over the 55-200mm I am very happy with this lens as it gives me a lot of reach (about 450mm full-frame equivalent) with excellent optical performance in a compact and portable size. About my only minor complaint would be its bokeh characteristics. It is a bit swirly and nervous unless the background is really out of focus (i.e very distant).
FUJIFILM XF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 R LM OIS WR Lens
Exactly what I was looking for! Great optical quality and very compact. It can also be used with the 1.4x and 2x Fujifilm Teleconverters. What's not to like? I sold my Fujifilm XF 55-200mm lens and swapped into this.
Exceeds Expectations
I purchased this lens as a more travel-friendly alternative to my trusty but leviathan Nikon 200-500, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the performance. Side by side with the Nikon, with apples to apples settings, the samples were nearly identical (the Nikon may have had a miniscule edge, but nowhere near enough to justify it's weight and bulk on a field trip). Back to the Fuji 70-300: below are two images produced with that lens on my X-T3 a few days ago on the Washington coast. Enjoy!
A great choice for photographers who hike
I recently purchased this lens as a substitute for my 100-400 mm Fuji lens. The 100-400 was just too massive to take on long hiking trips, and I found I wasn't using it enough to warrant keeping it. The 70-300 doesn't have quite the same telephoto reach, but it has wonderful optics and is much more compact. The result is that it goes everywhere with me, and I use it all the time. A bonus feature is that the 1.4x adaptor works with it and gives it greater range. I am very happy.
Superb in Every Way
I bought this lens to replace an aging Olympus E-30 DSLR and 70-300 (140-600 Equiv.) Lens. Images from that kit never compared with Fujifilm. Considered the 100-400, but decided against it because of weight and softness around 400mm. Image Quality of the 700-300 is on par with the superb 55-200, with similar handling, but offers 50% more reach, and the ability to pair with the 1.4x TC. 5 Stars. I haven't found any reason to deduct from that rating.
Versatile & reasonable weight
Purchased to take on site visits where hiking and climbing (ladders) is somewhat challenging. This lens is easy to hold off tripod and with one hand; the images are crystal clear..
