This lens was very inexpensive but takes quality photos. It's on the slower side but I just raise the iso to 400 when I use it and all is fine. Its not a sports lens but I'm sure you can use it for games of younger children who aren't nearly as fast as teens or adults. I'm glad I bought this because the price was great and I'm sure I'll get some good use from this lens. One more thing is that I got free shipping and it only took 2 days to arrive at my door. Amazing.

Basically, this is a kit lens. If you can get it with the X-T20 or X-T30(yet unannounced kit)... My dad got his with an X-T10 bundle (he upgraded to an X-T30 and kept this. Great lower end zoom, basically the only cheap option. Sharp enough. It is SLOW when zoomed way out or wider open, but that was to be expected when I purchased this... I was not going to do NASCAR or bird photography with this (and I tried bird photography and aquarium photography at the zoo and it was 50% successful; maybe I need to get better). Overall, good purchase for the price. It's the ONY lens in the price range I'd recommend if you don't wanna go adapters and full manual. 4 stars because I can't go 4.5.

The lens was brand new, in the compleat, original, Fuji packaging. The price was less than I could buy a used lens for in the states. While not the best lens in the Fuji lineup, I would still rate it as very good. The lens body is plastic, but that makes it the lightest telaphoto lens available from Fuji. I have little use for a telaphoto lens except while traveling, so it's light weigh was the critical factor in deciding on this purchase. I don't recomend this lens for anyone who is seriously interested in telaphoto photography, but for travel and casual photography it is highly recomended.

Not as well made as Fujis premium lenses...plastic, not metal. That said, it seems durable and well constructed. No f stop ring..must be adjusted in the camera but not an issue. Not great in low light because it is slow....but great in regular to bright light, especially good for spirts and nature shots. It is not tack sharp, but certainly acceptable. Fuji pro version is about 5 times the price so I can't complain. Its a great telephoto lens for every day use, lightweight and small. Ideal for traveling, not so much for professional use. But the pro version is twice the weight and larger...and much pricier. For $160 I think its the best deal out there. Don't hesitate to buy it if it fits your use.

This light lens is also very well made and produces excellent images. Wish it had more features, but at this low price it's a great bargain. Perfect for those who need a light lens for back packing or simply all day carry.
