Fuji XF 150-600mm First Wildlife Photography Shoot With New Lens 

Exactly the video I was looking for, Thank you 🙏 😊

Always enjoy your videos and the story that goes along with them. I almost feel that I am there with you ☺️ Thank you for your first impressions of this lens, I look forward to seeing it on more of your little adventures in the future 🙏🏻

I have this lens with the x-h2 body. I'm in love with this combo. Fantastic for wildlife.

I really enjoyed watching your video Wayne. Very nice photos of the birds. Looking forward to seeing more videos about this lens.

What a great video. Less talking and lots of sample images for us to see the results. Thank you!!

Looks like a fab lens.

Greetings from Ireland. Excellent review and images best review of the lens by far thank you.

Brilliant review and awesome pictures and videos, well done.

wow it seems like a great lens, definition seems very good , having the xt3 and the 100 -400 lens this seems as a very good choice,the great iso capability of the camera will set you super good fotos looking forward to the next video this

Really nice work, man!

Looks like a very good lens, some fantastic photos you managed to get, especially like the woodpeckers.

Thank you for an interesting video with this lens which I'm considering to buy. Some great shots i think, however it would be really great if you could show just basic info about iso, focal length and aperture along with each image as these things can be hard to judge just from the photo itself, yet are very useful to know for people evaluating and comparing this lens to the 100 to 409 for example. Anyway, thanks again for sharing.

Nice video. I’ve just bought this lens - awaiting delivery today. I have already bought the Fujifilm X-H2S, so I’m looking forward to trying out this combo later today. BTW, the dragonfly is a Common Blue Damselfly.

Hi Wayne, I missed this video earlier and I am not sure if you will get these comments but other people might find them helpful, the first minor point is that the Dragonfly you photographed is actually one of the blue damsels, either Azure or common blue, the emperor is much larger!. The second issue is the way one can assign all sorts of buttons for all sorts of purposes, my favourite is the little one on the front of the camera next to the lens that is for me in the perfect place to use for 'back button' focus, which in this case is really 'front button' focus!. My main reason for favouring this one is that it is possible to press it gently to acquire focus without moving the camera at all!, a significant issue when trying to hand hold the camera with the 80mm macro lens. I am the proud owner of the 100 to 400 and am a bit frustrated by its small aperture which demands very good light for high dynamic range, this bigger lens is even narrower and while I would love the bigger each it does cause the same issues. For a long time I was anticipating the 200mm F2 as the perfect lens and low and behold it is just far too expensive for me!. Cheers, Richard

Looks a great lens. I currently have the 100-400 with my XT4 and sometimes use the 1.4 teleconverter. I really like this lens and would love the 600 but probably would have to get rid of the 400 to help with the cost. Worried this would be a big mistake if I didn't get along with the new lens. I Will just have to start saving. Enjoyed the video

Great images great lens but the first image of the dragonfly has got something about it. It's full of crisp clear light; spiritually uplifting.

Lovely pictures! I bought this lens and XH2S too and it’s much faster than XT4 to capture birds in flight from my initial impressions too…

Excellent and un-pretentious review. Thanks. I've been using this new lens with my X-Pro 3 for the last few weeks and really enjoying it. I see that you were using the Focus Control buttons. I haven't been able to use these yet - I was under the impression that I have to wait for a Fuji Firmware upgrade in order to use them on my X Pro 3.

my camera is the Fuji X-T20. I recently got the XF150-600mm , I have not tested it yet, but i hope it goes well

Great video! What kind of bag do you store that in? Or do you just keep it out the whole time you're out?

Some wonderfull pictures. Thanks for the review. I just ordered the lens for a week on rent basis for the full moon in november. I do hope it works with my x-s10. I didn't understand the reason for those focus buttons. What do they do?

Please post more, maybe at a local zoo? Would love to see more before purchasing this lens

Nice review.. did you just say you use XT3 with this lens? Because im planning to get XT4 and xf 150-600..

I enjoyed this video. I also have bought the 150-600 lens for my XT4 but only been able to have it out a couple of days due to weather. it is winter here. I am curious as to what focus method you are using. I use single point and have reduced the size of the square mainly because I am photographing in dense foliage. I made a mistake the first day as I had put on the 1.4 extender. It was quite overcast and I ended up using too high an ISO. The second day I used it was bright light but where I was the birds were quite a long distance. Despite this an using f8 I was surprised at how shallow the depth of field is which was easy to see because I was using red focus peaking on mudflats. My shots on the second day were much better. What shutterspeed were you using for the birds in flight. I had mine set on 1/2500 but even then some were blurred.

I have a question...What camera bodies does this lens fit/compatible with?

Thanks for the review. I am still unsure if I should get a used 100-400 for half the price..

What does the weight of the lens feel like carrying around as compared to the 100-400?

How much better is it after use than the 100-400 with the 1.4X tele Better = Image quality, handling, Focus speed 560mm @F/8 vs 600mm @F/8... is not enough on its own to justify selling the 100-400 with 1.4x TC and buying the 150-600 for me thanks

Is this lens scratch resistant?

Nice image at 4:12. Juvenile (male?) chaffinch, I think.

Which camera did you use in this video? Please tel me.🥺

Where is my Fujifilm XF 300mm f4.0?

Its kind of sad that at 600mm its F8. which make it unusable when there is less light like in sunrise hours where all the animals activity really happens. They should have made it F6.3 at the long range like sony, tamron, sigma. What is the max f-stop at 400mm?
