The XF150-600mmF5.6-8 offers the longest focal length of any lens currently available for the X series, with a zoom range from 150mm to 600mm (equivalent to 229? 914mm KB). *1 With teleconverters already available, the range can be further extended to 1200mm (equivalent to 1828mm KB). Super telephoto lenses are prone to optical aberrations that result in a loss of image quality. The optical system of the XF150-600mmF5.6-8 therefore incorporates three ED elements and four Super ED elements to ensure high imaging performance over the entire focal length range. The fast autofocus ensures that the lens focuses precisely at the decisive moment. Despite its impressive performance, the XF150- 600mmF5.6-8 is surprisingly light, weighing just 1,605 grams, and remains exceptionally handy thanks to the non-extending zoom mechanism. This makes the new zoom lens the ideal choice for wildlife and sports photography, where shots often have to be taken from a great distance.
