Fujifilm XF 500mm F5.6 R LM OIS WR review: I’ve got a super-tele silver machine. You'll want one too

Fujifilm XF 500mm f/5.6 R LM OIS WR.

Fujifilm has been steadily building its APS-C format range of mirrorless X system cameras and lenses since 2011. With around 50 own-brand ‘Fujinon’ lenses currently available, plus a bunch more from independent lens manufacturers, there’s something to suit pretty much every need, budget and shooting scenario.

One gap in the line-up has so far been a really long super-telephoto prime lens. Sure, there are the rather excellent Fujifilm XF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR and Fujifilm XF150-600mm F5.6-8 R LM OIS WR zoom lenses but, if you’re more into prime time, it’s been a long time coming.
