15 months with the Fujinon XF 55-200mm lens | Electric Lemonade

During the 15 or so years I shot motorsport professionally I always used fast aperture telephoto lenses including a 70-200mm f2.8, 300mm f2.8, 600mm f4 etc. I had never considered a 75-300mm lens in the past due to the slow maximum aperture, cheap construction and compromised image quality but when I was building my FujiFilm X-series outfit the Fujinon XF 55-200mm F3.5-4.8 R LM OIS telephoto zoom lens made perfect sense. The Fujinon XF18-55mm F2.8-4 R LM OIS is my workhorse lens for landscapes but the 55-200mm (84-305mm full frame/35mm format equivalent) is ideal when I need a longer reach and also the 4.5 stop image stabilisation, plus the reasonably compact size and weight (580g), make it an excellent option for hand held shots as well……
