FUJINON XF400mmF4.5 R LM OIS WR Lens

FUJIFILM North America Corp., Electronic Imaging Division, announced the FUJINON XF400mmF4.5 R LM OIS WR super-telephoto prime lens, featuring a focal length of 400mm (equivalent to 609mm in the 35mm format) and a bright maximum aperture of F4.5 – delivering some of the highest optical performance in the XF lens lineup. FUJINON XF400mmF4.5 R LM OIS WR will be available mid-September 2026 at a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price of $3,199.95 USD and $3,899.99 CAD.

“When you’re making images outdoors, reach matters,” said Victor Ha, vice president and general manager, Electronic Imaging Division, FUJIFILM North America Corporation. “You need a lens that gets you close to the action without disturbing the scene or wearing you down over a long day. XF400mm lets photographers stay mobile and react to what’s in front of them, and they don’t have to trade image quality to do it. With super telephoto lenses, the balance of size and performance is the creative advantage, and XF400mm is exactly that. Lightweight, compact, powerful.”

With the addition of XF400mm to the lineup, the range of super-telephoto prime lenses in the FUJINON X Mount family now covers 35mm equivalent focal lengths from 305mm to approximately 762mm. 

Features

  • Leveraging the 1.5x crop factor of the APS-C format, the lens delivers a 609mm full-frame equivalent field of view in a compact body weighing approximately 2.74 pounds (1,245g)1. Its lightweight design and compact portability make it ideal for extended image making sessions and travel.
  • Front-heavy balance is a common challenge with super-telephoto lenses, but XF400mm features an optimized optical design that positions the center of gravity closer to the camera body. This improves handling and helps reduce fatigue during extended handheld shooting sessions.
  • Optimized stabilization mechanism provides up to 5.5 stops of image stabilization performance. This enables stable handheld shooting even at super-telephoto focal lengths, where camera shake can be particularly noticeable.
  • The use of an internal focusing system drives the focusing group with a high-speed linear motor, allowing the lens to achieve fast and near silent autofocus. Even during demanding super-telephoto photography, the lens enables fast and highly accurate autofocus.
  • XF400mm features a focus preset function that allows users to instantly shift the focus to a position preset using the “SET” button. Since there’s no need to refocus on the intended subject, users can achieve focus instantly.
