Thoughts and Field Test: Fujifilm 55-200mm Lens

Earlier this year, we got our hands on the excellent Fujifilm 55-200mm f/3.5-4.8 lens. After several months of shooting with it around Seattle and even during our wedding in Italy, all we can say is wow. Not only does this lens offer a versatile focal length perfect for landscape and travel photography, but it also has a great design consistent with Fujifilm's vintage appearance. Unlike most other Fujifilm telephoto zooms for APS-C cameras, this lens is made mostly of metal, giving it a solid feel. It also has a reasonably fast variable f-stop, making it decent for shooting in low lighting. All in all, we've loved this zoom while shooting with it attached to the Fujifilm X-Pro2. Below, you'll find a gallery of sample images shot with this lens. We also included a video that goes over more thoughts and a field test.
