Fujinon XF 500mm f/5.6 R LM O.I.S. WR lens for X Series is here – and it’s redefining super-telephoto photography. Combining the advantages of an APS-C sensor with advanced optical design and manufacturing techniques, has helped create a far-reaching optic the size of a 300mm lens, yet offering the 35mm equivalent to a 762mm. Heavy cases, cumbersome tripods, and specialist handholding and focusing skills are a thing of the past. XF 500mm paired with FUJIFILM X-H2S mirrorless digital camera body has a combined gear weight (including battery and memory card) of less than 2kg (4.41lbs) yet offers an impressive F5.6 maximum aperture. Super-telephoto creativity is no longer reserved for specialists; it’s now within every photographer’s reach.

Take a Front-Row Seat

Birds soaring through the sky, athletes in fierce competition, planes flying high, animals in their natural habitat – making brilliant images of distant details is one of photography’s greatest challenges. But with a focal length equivalent to 762mm in the 35mm format, Fujinon XF 500mm f/5.6 R LM OIS WR lens gives you a front-row seat to do just that. Use the f/5.6 maximum aperture to isolate a subject from its surroundings and create extraordinary images of incredible experiences.

Optically Outstanding

Today’s creatives demand outstanding quality from a super-telephoto lens – simply bringing distant details close is not enough. Fujinon XF 500mm f/5.6 R LM O.I.S. WR lens features 21 lens elements in 14 groups and uses Super ED and ED glass for uncompromising contrast, detail and sharpness. Combined with the familiar perspective compression of a super-telephoto optic, it will redefine how you see the world.

Maneuvering heavy equipment for prolonged periods to be ready for a moment that may only last for a split second is tough. We’ve achieved this by making each lens element as small and thin as possible, yet optimizing image quality through careful positioning of aspherical and ED elements. As a result, the lens weighs just 1335g (2.94lbs), yet still delivers critical sharpness.

Razor-Sharp Responses

Super-telephoto power is nothing without autofocusing speed. The whisper-quiet linear motor in Fujinon XF 500mm f/5.6 R LM O.I.S. WR lens achieves accurate focus in just 0.33 seconds, so you’ll never miss a moment. This performance is made possible by the precise arrangement of lens elements, which minimize chromatic and spherical aberrations, while still allowing the focusing lens group to move with speed and precision.

Solid Stabilization

Alongside a compact, lightweight design, powerful image stabilization makes a super-telephoto lens easy to use. Fujinon XF 500mm f/5.6 R LM O.I.S. WR lens offers assured handholding thanks to an optical image stabilization (O.I.S.) system providing up to 5.5 stops of correction. Advanced O.I.S. technology processes signals in real time for extreme precision, while the lens group responsible for vertical image stabilization has been optimized and miniaturized. The result? Complete confidence to work handheld in nearly any situation, including indoor and low-light scenarios.
