High-Quality Imagery for Stills and Video

The XF 18-120mm F4 LM PZ WR lens offers a wide range of focal lengths, from 18mm wide-angle to 120mm telephoto (equivalent to 27mm - 183mm in the 35mm film format). Its compact design and 6.7x power zoom make it a great choice for capturing landscapes and portraiture. Plus, its advanced video performance makes it ideal for creating premium-quality movies. This lens is perfect for capturing high-quality imagery for both stills and video in a variety of situations.

The XF 18-120mm F4 LM PZ WR is a power zoom lens that offers the constant maximum aperture of F4 across the entire range from wide-angle to telephoto and a maximum ratio of x0.2 to capture close-up shots.

The lens lends itself well to filming video as it suppresses changes in the angle of view during focusing and optical axis shift during zooming. Users can zoom and focus with peace of mind while filming video, thus facilitating premium quality video production. In addition to the regular zoom and focus rings, the lens is equipped with additional video features, i.e. a variable zoom/focus control ring and a zoom button for constant zooming. These versatile video functions have only been made possible thanks to the expertise of the Fujinon Lens brand, which has produced numerous broadcast and cine lenses.

The lens provides hybrid shooting capability for any scene in both stills and video.

Broad Range of Focal Lengths for Superior Stills and Video

The lens consists of 15 lens elements in 12 groups, including three aspherical elements and three ED elements to suppress spherical aberration effectively, distortion and chromatic aberration for excellent image resolving performance. Users can precisely capture fine details during information-heavy landscape photography at wide-angle and telephoto close-ups of subjects, such as portraiture.

Optimum positioning of the focus lens suppresses focus breathing optically. Advanced technology, on which FUJINON cine lenses are built, reduces the change in angle of view during focusing in video filming to offer a superior filming experience.

The aspherical elements and ED elements are effectively positioned to achieve the 6.7x zoom ratio and compact design while also offering the maximum aperture of F4.0 across the entire zoom range.

The optimum positioning of the aspherical elements enables close-up photography at the maximum magnification ratio of x0.2 with the minimum working distance of just 46cm from the front most lens element across the entire zoom range.

Fast and Highly Accurate AF

The lens uses the Inner Focus system, which drives the compact and lightweight focus lens group with a linear motor. The compact design of the focus lens group facilitates precision AF at approx. 0.02 seconds, ensuring that users do not miss a decisive moment.

The lens's focus tracking performance is dramatically improved when mounted on the Fujifilm X-H2S. The lens supports the camera's high- speed focus drive mechanism to maintain a natural focus on a moving subject even during video filming.

Diverse Video-filming Functions for Easy Video Production

The aperture drive control has been updated to suppress exposure shift linked to aperture adjustments successfully when the level of luminosity changes, the aperture transitions smoothly so that users can comfortably film a scene with a rapid change of brightness.

The lens features a zoom/ focus control ring, allowing users to control zooming or focusing at variable speeds. During video filming, users can control the pace of zooming or focusing exactly as they intend for greater freedom.

The lens also comes with a zoom button, which can drive zooming at a constant pace, allowing anyone to master video production that involves zooming.

Compact and Lightweight Design for Advanced Mobility

The aspherical elements and ED elements are effectively positioned to achieve a design, weighing just 0.46kg and measuring 12.35cm in length, making it easily portable to facilitate agile filming.

The use of the Inner Zoom system means the lens barrel has a plain, non-extending structure. The result is a lightweight lens that zooms easily with no shift in weight distribution. Additionally, instead of the conventional cam barrel, in which the lens barrel rotates, this lens uses a smooth power zoom mechanism that drives the zoom lens group linearly with a stepping motor to achieve high quality zooming with no optical axis shift across the entire zoom range.

Dust and Weather Resistant Structure Capable of Operating at Low Temperatures

The lens barrel is weather-sealed at 13 locations to ensure dust- and weather- resistance and the ability to operate at temperatures down to -10 degrees Celsius, allowing users to shoot in any situation with peace of mind.
