Fujifilm Fujinon GF 250mm F4 R LM OIS WR review: Go long or go home!

Fujinon GF 250mm F4 R LM OIS WR.

Fujifilm is enhancing its long-term reputation as a high-quality photographic company, stretching back to 1934, with a growing line-up of fabulous Fujinon GF lenses for its highly acclaimed medium format GFX system cameras. The Fujinon GF 250mm F4 R LM OIS WR takes its place as the longest telephoto lens so far, with an ‘effective’ focal length of about 200mm in full-frame terms (198mm to be precise). And if that’s not long enough for your liking, the lens is also compatible with the GF 1.4X TC WR teleconverter, which boosts telephoto power to 280mm, equivalent to 277mm on a full-frame camera with a smaller image sensor. Naturally, you’ll get the usual 1 f/stop reduction in aperture rating when adding the teleconverter.

As a medium format lens, the GF 250mm needs to produce a relatively large image circle, catering to a bigger image sensor. (Image credit: Matthew Richards)
