  | sent on 12 Giugno 2021 Pros: Quite portable, decent resolution, weather sealing, close up capability. Cons: The zoom ring is quite stiff on rotation, noisy and shaking when switch off or change from shooting to play, expensive in comparison with the competition on the same segment quality/price; I experienced several strange moments when suddenly refused to focus. Opinion: Its zoom range is welcomed and is filling a gap in the Fuji chain of lenses. I like the weather sealing and its close up capabilities, the resolution is decent, but not extraordinary. It is also nice that it accepts teleconverters and, at least with the 1.4x version, a decent prolongation can be achieved. I made a comparison, on the same body, with the Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 VR and the sharpness is more or less the same, but the price of the Nikon is more than 3x lower. The main advantage of Fuji in this comparison is the weather sealing, acceptance of teleconverters and it seems, the lack of focus breathing. |

  | sent on 02 Agosto 2025 Pros: Weight, size, price, WR, minimum focusing distance Cons: Sharpness, AF, no tripod collar Opinion: Focal range that is personally very useful for photos in nature. Minimum focusing distance that allows, at 300mm, to isolate almost macro-style details. Size and weight allow you to always have it with you, not common for a telephoto with an equivalent range of 100-450mm; Surely the openness is not the best, but somewhere you have to make compromises. Unfortunately, sharpness and AF are not the best, in fact making me prefer the 150-600 whenever portability is not so binding. I find a senseless omission that of the tripod collar; They could have found a solution, also because it extends a lot with the zoom and the camera-lens is quite unbalanced on the tripod (in addition to the fact that shooting vertically with the grip becomes impossible). |
 | sent on 23 Aprile 2025 Pros: Lightweight, compact, sharp Cons: I have a good mouth. I can't find any. Opinion: Maybe if I was a professional (???) of technical photography, which has to go and see if in the corners the lens reaches the maximum "acuteness" because the photographed subject actually requires it, then I could find faults... But for normal photos, with normal subjects, in normal conditions it is perfect. I don't print photos of one meter by two anyway. Colors? MicroContrast? Aberrations? There's Photoshop that fixes everything. The photo is taken by the photographer and you like it or you don't like it. Blurred, blurred, discolored... If it tells something, it's beautiful. If it doesn't tell anything you can also have a Super-apo-ultra-definition... And you throw away the photo |
 | sent on 05 Febbraio 2024 Pros: Very good at all focal lengths when used within the limits of the optics Cons: N.N. Opinion: I have my say... For its price it's a good lens. Like all zooms with great range, it has its limits and must be considered To get closer to landscapes, objects that do not have particular details is fine, to have a good sharpness the subject must not be too far away otherwise it will not be able to make it to its maximum, especially if it is used at its upper limit but this depends on the level of sharpness that each photographer requires, for some it will be fine, for others it will not The most demanding will have to spend more a greeting to all |
 | sent on 16 Giugno 2023 Pros: Tropicalization, sharpness, WR, excursion block Cons: If I really have to find one, the lack of the tripod ring Opinion: I bought this lens before leaving for Patagonia and South America, and I practically never took it off except on rare occasions! Lightweight, compact and tropicalized, it has a yield along the entire focal length truly remarkable! The stabilization does its duty in an excellent way even if the ring for the mono / tripod could have been convenient. The travel lock that is automatically deactivated by turning the dial is very convenient! Mounted on an APS-C it is already a nice cannon, but for lovers of photo hunting there is also the possibility of mounting multipliers! As far as I'm concerned, it's absolutely one of the best lenses I've ever used! |
  | sent on 17 Dicembre 2022 Pros: IQ, stabilization, weight, characteristics, aesthetics (subjective I know) Cons: Varifocal behavior Opinion: I fell in love with this optics. It has the right image quality (and I'm not good-mouthed), has a scary stabilization, weighs little, has the fire limiter which is a manna and then I really like it aesthetically, apart from the hood. The only flaw if we want is its varifocal behavior, that is, zooming you lose focus. But if you do "patient" photography like me, you can postpone it. Highly recommended for those who want a tele zoom of excellent quality, with features above average, without fainting. |

 | sent on 17 Dicembre 2022 Pros: Lightweight, af, wr, quiet, ois, cost, overall quality Cons: Lens correction, good sharpness but not at the top Opinion: Very functional lens that if you think of multiplying it with a TC you will have a slight decrease in non-stellar sharpness on the maximum focal lengths, so it is useless to talk again about why not multiply it. Excellent lens in general, better can not be found as a curve mtf on 70-300 in general, I took it to relax with my Weimaraner, photos always in focus with Xt3 and af small area setting the af on the front displacement, the only flaw that when I see the images rich in detail almost medium format of the 56 wr and 23 wr, I see the images produced by this lens and then I remain bad, the 50-140 too heavy and impossible in the movement while you have to be agile to understand the behavior of the dynamic action and all in all so I stop at 70-300 without big pretensions. Lens above average but not spatial, rating 9.4 |
 | sent on 12 Agosto 2022 Pros: Lightness Cons: Sharpness towards 300. Not suitable for those who love the detail of distant subjects. Opinion: I took it used as a whim even knowing that I would use it little because it is not suitable for what I photograph (street-urban). Excellent sharpness except in the last 50 mm where it loses. Photos taken at 300mm. they are not croppable that much. This in my opinion makes it a lens not too suitable for those looking for detail from afar. I gave it away because I shoot mainly between 18 and 60 mm (in aps-c) and I would have used it almost nothing. |
 | sent on 26 Febbraio 2022 Pros: Very light, very good AF, WR, price and many others Cons: When extended to 300 it is ugly to see Opinion: Purchased at the end of 2021 and used a lot because in addition to being light it is also sharp with fast AF with the X-T3 but much faster AF on the X-E4, on the latter it clearly unbalances a little. The X-T3 hooks in single AF very well but X-E4 hooks well even in continuous AF. Clearly with the T3 seen the WR of both you go safer in situations of rain and dust. The optical quality surprised me in a positive way and the blurred, while not being like the 50-140 2.8, is very good. Recommended purchase also for the low price. |

| sent on 07 Agosto 2021 Pros: A lot of Pro +++++, So much sharpness to give, Rings, AF, Stabilizer, WR gasket for dust and humidity, light but excellent construction, excellent internal profile corrections. Cons: Not negative only an observation the AF low light but physiological limit, chromatic aberrations at focal length 300 mm nothing dramatic, focal angles 300 mm but seen zoom extension still excellent. A lens not suitable to have the best possible bokeh I would say normal for such an extended zoom. Opinion: Or bought yesterday Friday on 06.08.2021 this optics 70-300. Really was a nice surprise for me. I had as tele zoom twice the 55-200 the 50-230 and the 50-140. For me the absolute best tele zoom tried ok for what concerns the phenomenal 50-140 with ultra fast AF but or criticized the weight of this lens and I do not even feel so much the lack of this lens. The 70-300 really built very well I also find rings ok the sharpness and stabilizer I just have to say exceed my expectations. Do I have to reflect what can be negative about this perspective? I can only think of the AF with low light but I do not find it physiological negative then sufficient if someone is not satisfied set the AF on Multi Zone. Definitely not a lens for sports action I recommend them go on the zoom 50-140. For portrait not the right optics bokeh better than the Fuji 90 2.0. The stabilizer comes to new records tested with Fuji X-H1 and X-T4 stabilized sensor plus lens stabilizer makes a winning weapon. I find the performance and price ratio really very high kudos Fuji to did a great job. If you buy this lens and don't need large apertures and super fast AF and bokeh cutting edge theme can be nature photos, macros, travel, architecture then this 70-300 we recommend does the same job as a zoom 50-140 sharpness with the advantage comes to focal length 300 mm more super stabilized with the Fuji X-T4 a dream realized. |
 | sent on 09 Luglio 2021 Pros: Compactness, phenomenal stabilization, weight, focus distance, tropicalization, price, possibility of using focal multipliers Cons: Lens hood, zoom stroke too hard, aperture ring too soft Opinion: Well-conceived lens, I bought it as a replacement for the 50-230 splendid lens that gave me many satisfactions but I needed those 100mm more. Top construction, weight greater than the xc but still very contained. Very close focus distance allows you to take pictures of fleeting insects (bees, butterflies etc ...) while maintaining a respectable distance. It is tropicalized, admits multipliers (I hope to try them soon), Fast Af and rarely reed, the stabilizer is a bomb! It shoots at 1/20 freehand at 300mm... I do not think we can do any better! The price in relation to the quality is correct but I'm sure that with time it will settle on 750 €, I L took it to 850 €.... On the cons I could L emphasis on the hardness of the zoom in my opinion excessive, the manual focus and the aperture ring, on the other hand, are too soft, this feature can give boredom in some cases. The lens hood is too bulky if mounted on the contrary does not allow you to use the zoom and is plastic. For a sporting use (trekking, hiking, tourism or sport if not excessively far from the subjects) it is a bomb!!! |
 | sent on 12 Giugno 2021 Pros: all Cons: lacks aperture scale Opinion: the apsc format with this lens expresses its incredible compactness. a 100-450 that does not disappoint. Only attention from 200 to 300 mm preferable to use times from .60 and up, at least on xt3. With stabilized sensor I do not know. Optics that will maintain an excellent value over time, I'm sure, it will hardly fall in the second-hand market below 500 euros. |
 | sent on 17 Aprile 2021 Pros: Small size and weight, good sharpness, fast and quiet AF, zoom lock button, stabilizer Cons: It is well built but the plastics do not seem to me like other Fuji lenses, the lampshed is very plastic and some compromises have to be accepted; absence of stabilizer selector. Opinion: Praise Fuji for this compact, well-built and lightweight lens. In combination with the 1.4x tc it is possible to have an equivalent 520mm (630mm with the sensor crop factor), with maximum compactness and transportability. I like the lock button to stop zooming and prevent it from extending when we transport the camera, I like tropicalization, I like the stabilizer and I like the optical scheme that allows you to get good blurry and use the lens even as a macro, given the reduced minimum focus distance. Good sharpness and color rendering. I do not like the absence of the sector of activation /deactivation of the stabilizer on the barrel and I do not like some plastics, not at the top, and above all that of the lampshed that is of a poor level, not to say chinese. The AF works well and is fast, however coupled with the 1.4x TC it seemed to me that it slows down slightly more than with fuji 100-400mm... Future firmware will probably improve it. The best yield comes between f8 and f11. Present on some focal lengths and at certain openings, distortion, vignetting and aberration, all phenomena that, however, arise to a limited extent and not such as to compromise the final result. |

| sent on 30 Marzo 2021 Pros: Weight and footprint. Quiet and fast autofocus. Stabilization. Optical quality and macro capacity. Cons: I have to concentrate: movement of the barrel in strong extension and slight vignetting at the maximum opening. Opinion: Since I took it, I've had a hard time removing it from the body of the machine. It has a magnification power that always amazes me and is fun for its ability to "rummage" everywhere, detaching the subject that interests me from everything else. The macro capacity was a welcome surprise, making it really a handyman despite the pushes: in addition to photographic hunting, macro, certain street, particular portraits, landscape with strong perspectives. It is also surprising that the price is not exaggerated, especially in comparison with the competition. For optical qualities I can say that also thanks to the really effective stabilization (last night I took a freehand photo at night and when I looked at it on the PC I saw that it was practically free from motion despite having been taken at 200 mm. and a tenth of a second - the images are always sharp in relation to their category , without, of course, achieving the definition of fixed assets. I noticed minimal vignetting in T.A., few color fringes and little disturbance from a strong light in the field. Non-perceptible deformations. At f:11 begins the diffraction that makes you avoid more closed diaphragms. Best diaphragms 5.6 and 8 to 70 mm. and 8-11 to 300 mm. A very fun lens and that, despite the focal point, it is quite possible to take with you effortlessly; I don't know how many kits allow this with a 460 mm. Equivalent... |
 | sent on 26 Marzo 2021 Pros: Lightweight, handy, crisp, excellent color yield, excellent zoom sliding and clutch Cons: Nothing, that he found Opinion: I'm sorry the few photos I could take are limited to buildings in my street. The pictured church is about 400 meters away while the group of houses is about two kilometers away. Having received it yesterday and not being able to move from home I couldn't resist taking a few shots with the X-T4 at 200 ISO and fire 8. It is true, they are photos of no value, but they give a clear idea of the quality of the goal. The realization is perfect, everything works wonderfully, the stabilization, the sliding of the zoomed, the light but very valid light light. I hope as soon as possible to take photos more in line with the quality of the goal, paid 798 Euros, new to pat. |
