About the Product
The optical construction features 22 elements in 16 groups, ensuring high resolution and excellent correction of aberrations across the entire zoom range. The lens strikes an impressive balance between extreme focal length and portability, making it practical for all-day use while traveling.

Faqs:
How far does this lens actually reach on a Fujifilm X-mount camera?
Due to the 1.5x crop factor of the Fujifilm APS-C sensor, the 100-400mm focal length is equivalent to a massive 150 millimeter to 600 millimeter lens in 35mm format. This is an extreme telephoto range, perfect for distant subjects.
Is the 4-stop Optical Stabilizer (OS) sufficient for handheld shooting at 400mm?
A 4-stop OS is highly effective, especially for a lens of this size and reach. While optimal results are often achieved with a monopod or tripod, the stabilization system makes handheld shooting entirely feasible, particularly in bright light where you can maintain faster shutter speeds.
What does the Stepping Motor mean for autofocus performance?
The stepping motor provides quick, smooth, and very quiet autofocus operation. This is ideal for shooting video where noise is a concern, and for tracking fast-moving subjects like birds in flight without missing the moment.
Can I use this lens for close-up subjects as well?
Yes, the lens offers a good maximum magnification of 1:4.1 at the 400mm telephoto end, allowing you to focus as close as 1.6 meters. This lets you capture detailed close-ups of moderately sized subjects with the added benefit of telephoto compression.
What are the AF function setting switch and AF function button used for?
These are custom controls that allow you to assign specific functions (like focus lock, AF mode, or AF area selection) directly to the lens. This optimization for the X-mount system enhances control and speeds up the shooting process, letting you adjust settings quickly without taking your eye from the viewfinder.
