Product Description

Fujifilm Fujinon XF 18-120mm F4 LM PZ WR Lens

A professional-quality power zoom lens, developed by the engineers and experts responsible for FUJINON Broadcast and Cinema Lenses. Ideal for smaller, independent crews and moviemaking enthusiasts, it sports video-focused features – including automated controls and a stepless aperture, alongside a versatile 27-183mm equivalent range. 60cm (23.6in) close focusing distance and weather resistance.

Tailor-made for Motion
XF 18-120mm F4 R LM PZ WR is the first X Series XF lens engineered in collaboration with the design team responsible for bringing FUJINON lenses to the high-end worlds of cinema and broadcast. Compact, lightweight, and versatile, this lens is tailor-made for motion production professionals and enthusiasts alike. Inspired by its motion production roots, XF 18-120 features a variable power zoom, smooth manual focus, and stepless aperture adjustments to ensure a seamless recording experience. A conventional focus ring provides manual focus control, while a new innovative zoom lever offers variable zoom speed. Two custom function buttons, meanwhile, allow for the ability to preset a constant zoom speed, focal length, or focus point. Stepless aperture adjustments underscore the engineering subtleties of XF 18-120mm that provide any storyteller with absolute control over every part of their image.

Focus on creativity
Serious moviemakers demand full control over the creative process. And with XF 18-120mm F4 R LM PZ WR, that’s possible for zoom, aperture setting, and – crucially – focusing. The lens offers seamless switching between continuous autofocus and manual focus* during recording, so perfect results are always within reach. This advanced functionality maximizes versatility for focus transitions, allowing the user to step in and take control whenever required.

*Focus functionality requires a compatible camera firmware upgrade.

Perfectly Balanced
Zoom lenses are rarely used with gimbal stabilization devices because changing the lens’ focal length can affect its centre of gravity. This, in turn, impacts how the lens is balanced on the stabilization device. However, thanks to its compact dimensions and internal zooming mechanism, XF 18-120mm F4 R LM PZ WR is an ideal solution for use with a gimbal because its physical length does not change when the zoom setting is changed. This results in a variety of creative options while having only one lens fixed to the camera.

Made for Movement
With a 35mm zoom range equivalent to 27-183mm, a close focusing distance of 60cm (23.6in) throughout, and near-silent zoom and focusing controls, XF 18-120mm F4 R LM PZ WR is perfect for a broad range of motion production applications. These extend even further when considering the lens’ minimal focus breathing, stepless aperture control, and constant F4 aperture. Pull focus, make precise adjustments to the iris, or change focal length without causing any noticeable distractions to the recorded footage.

Create in all conditions
XF 18-120mm F4 R LM PZ WR will always be ready for those unexpected creative moments, thanks to its weather-resistant design and fluorine-coated front and rear elements, which are designed to repel dust and moisture from the lens surfaces, making them easy to clean. Confidently film in wet or dusty conditions, in temperatures as low as -10°C and focus on making a new masterpiece.

Understanding: Aperture

Aperture is the opening in a camera lens that controls how much light enters the camera. It's measured in f-stops like f/2.8 or f/8. Lower f-stop numbers mean wider openings, letting in more light and creating a shallow depth of field (blurry background). Higher f-stop numbers mean smaller openings, letting in less light and creating a larger depth of field (more of the scene in focus). Aperture also affects the quality of out-of-focus areas in the image (bokeh).

Understanding: Lens Types

Different lenses have different purposes to achieve different styles of images, some popular ones include:
Prime Lens: Fixed focal length, sharp images, great for portraits and dark settings.
Zoom Lens: Variable focal length, versatile for different shots and everyday use..
Wide-Angle Lens: Captures wide scenes like landscapes.
Telephoto Lens: Magnifies distant subjects, ideal for sports & wildlife.
Macro Lens: Perfect for close-up photography of small subjects.
Fisheye Lens: Ultra-wide perspective, creates unique images.

Understanding: Lens Mounts

Different camera brands use different lens mounts, which are like connectors that attach lenses to camera bodies. Each mount is specific to a particular brand and camera series. For example, Canon uses the EF and RF mounts, Nikon uses the F mount, Sony uses the E mount for its mirrorless cameras. These mounts dictate which lenses are compatible with which cameras. Some brands offer adapters to use lenses from other systems, but it's essential to ensure compatibility for proper functionality and autofocus performance.

Understanding: Manual and Autofocus

Manual focus and autofocus are two ways to adjust the sharpness of a camera lens. With manual focus, you turn a ring on the lens to bring the subject into focus yourself, giving you full control over what appears sharp in the image. Autofocus, on the other hand, relies on the camera's built-in technology to automatically adjust the focus for you, usually by detecting contrast or phase differences in the scene. Autofocus can be convenient, especially for fast-moving subjects or when you need to capture a quick shot, whereas manual focus allows for precise adjustments and creative control over the final image.
