Description — Fujifilm 18-135mm
The Fujifilm XF 18-135mm is a zoom lens designed for Fujifilm X mount mirrorless cameras, covering a 18mm to 135mm focal length range on APS-C format sensors. That extensive zoom ratio makes it one of the more versatile single-lens options available for the X system, capable of handling wide-angle scenes and reaching into telephoto territory without swapping glass. The lens features a maximum aperture of f/3.5 at its widest setting, providing a reasonable amount of light-gathering capability for a zoom of this range.
Built-in optical image stabilization helps keep images sharp during handheld shooting, which is especially beneficial at longer focal lengths. Both autofocus and manual focus are supported, giving photographers control over how they engage with their subjects. A 67mm filter thread allows straightforward use of popular filter types.
Weighing 490g, the XF 18-135mm strikes a practical balance between build quality and portability for Fujifilm X system shooters.
