Fujifilm XF 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR Lens, Bundle with ProOptic 67mm Filter Kit, Lens Wrap, Cleaning Kit, Lens Case, Lens Cap Tether, PC Software Kit

A remarkable addition to the rapidly expanding X-series lineup of mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera systems, the Fujifilm XF 18-135mm f/ 3.5 - 5.6R LM OIS WR lens stands out as the first weather-sealed lens in the series. Engineered with the world's most advanced image stabilization technology, this lens is designed to deliver superior image quality across a 35mm equivalent range of 27-206mm, making it an ideal choice for photographers seeking versatility and precision. Built on the foundation of the lineup's APS sensors, this lens was initially introduced as a perfect companion to the Fujifilm X-T1, the only other weatherproofed camera in the X-series lineup.

However, its compatibility extends to a wide range of Fujifilm X-series cameras, enhancing its appeal to a broader audience of photography enthusiasts. The Fujifilm XF 18-135mm f/ 3.5 - 5.6R LM OIS WR lens boasts 20 dust-proof and weather-proof sealed points, including a waterproof structure and a compact design. This makes it an excellent choice for photographers who frequently shoot in challenging weather conditions or are on the move. The lens features four aspherical glass lenses and two ED glass elements, all coated with a multi-layer HT-EBC coating. This high-permeability ( 99.8 %) coating minimizes reflectance and reduces lens flare and ghosting, ensuring crisp, clear images in a variety of lighting conditions.

The lens also offers a fast, quiet autofocus system. With an inner linear focusing mechanism and a claimed AF speed as fast as 0.08 second in Performance Mode (based on CIPA standards), this lens ensures quick, precise focusing. The low focus noise also makes it an excellent choice for shooting video. The lens's advanced image stabilization technology, which boasts a 5-stop range, is another standout feature. A high-precision gyro sensor with quartz oscillators detects movement across high to low-frequency bandwidths. This, coupled with a newly-developed algorithm, doubles the usable slow shutter speeds, allowing photographers to shoot in low light without a tripod.

The Fujifilm XF 18-135mm f/ 3.5 - 5.6R LM OIS WR lens is designed with 20 weather-sealed areas to protect against sudden rain, dust, and water splashes. A ventilator placed inside the lens barrel ensures smooth zooming, even with the weather seals. This lens is not just a piece of equipment; it's a reliable partner for every photography enthusiast seeking to capture the world in its truest form.
