Review VerdictThe Fujinon XF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 R LM OIS WR didn't fully convince us. This may be related to using it on an X-H2 for the gallery shots, and its 40 MP sensor is apparently a bit too much to swallow for this lens. On 26 MP - on which we still performed the lab tests - the situation isn't quite as tough. Here, the sharpness is fine in the 70mm to 200mm range. 300mm is still decent in the image center, less so at the borders. Lateral CAs, distortions, and vignetting are all a bit on the high side in RAW images; thus, autocorrection is a must-do with this lens - and it does the job. The quality of the bokeh is also a bit mixed, with rather busy specular highlights but nice blur quality. In terms of build quality, it's a typical consumer-grade lens. The used materials are of good quality, and there's no wobbling even when zooming out to 300mm. The weather-sealing is certainly a nice plus for a lens that will primarily be used outdoors. Both the AF and the image stabilizer are pretty efficient. On the downside, although that's probably not relevant for the target market, manual focusing is a pain. Overall, a decent option for users using a 26 MP camera, less so on 40 MP cameras unless you are willing to compromise.
