If you’re after an affordable telephoto lens, the Fujifilm XC 50-230mm F4.5-6.7 OIS II is a good option. It would complement the 16-50mm kit lens often sold with cameras such as the X-A3 and X-A10. It’s not too large and heavy, so a twin lens kit would make sense for travelling light.

The Fujinon XC 50-230mm f/4.5-6-7 OIS is a good performer in relation to its price level. The results are mostly sharp in the image center. The corners aren't quite as snappy in the upper range but let's be fair - you don't tend to place the main subject of your scene into the extreme corners...

When I saw the low price on this lens, I figured that it was another piece of rubbish like the Rokinon 300mm. However, someone gave it a decent rating and I took a chance. Now, each time I use the lens, I can't believe how good it is!

This isn't the fastest lens in the world, and it isn't the lens that I originally wanted (which is the 100mm-400mm), but it is the lens that I could afford, so I decided to give it a try. First, as I said, it isn't very fast. It doesn't give you lovely DOF and bokeh in most cases.

This lens is often unfairly underrated among the Fuji lineup, yet it's a very useful tool for anyone who is interested in reducing weight of their photo bag. It reminds me of the old Nikon 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G VR DX AF-S ED: lightweight, sharp and definitely not overpriced.

Good image quality!

Brilliant value and very impressed with quality; I could justify XF as I only will use this zoom occassionally

I purchased this lens before a safari, not having a longer lens to capture close up shots. I'm very new to photography, but for the price, the quality cannot be beat. I was very happy with how my photos turned out.

Excellent, top product

Great lens for the price. I don't use it often but when I need the extra reach, this affordable lens does a great job. Very light for it's size too.

Awesome picture quality!!! Only gripe is that the silver version looks to plasticy with the gray paint but it does not affect its performance

Every thing Fuji is great
