Cameras like the X-A3 don’t have an inbuilt viewfinder, so you will have to use the screen to compose your images. This can be a little trickier when you’re using a long telephoto length lens on a small body, but the image stabilisation does a good job of helping to keep the subject steady enough for you to compose your shot, even at the furthest 230mm reach.

 The lens itself is very minimalist in approach. There are no buttons or switches on the lens. Unlike some XF lenses, there’s no aperture ring either, so you’ll need to make any adjustments on the body of whichever camera you’re using. On some older models, you may need to perform a firmware upgrade to be able to use the command dial on the camera to adjust aperture.

 Despite being one of Fuji’s cheaper models, the build quality still feels well put together, although it doesn’t match the highest quality of Fuji’s XF lenses. The lens has a plastic mount and barrel, but the silver finish of the sample we were provided with looks stylish enough.

 In the middle of the lens is the zoom ring, which is fairly wide and has a ridged, rubberised grip. Just behind this you’ll see markings for different focal lengths throughout the range to help guide you to the focal length you want. Zooming is not internal, so the lens will extend as you zoom in - the lens reaches its longest point at 230mm, but compacts away relatively well when in the 50mm position.

 Just in front of the zoom ring is a manual focusing ring. It is ridged, but it doesn’t feature the rubberised coating. Its movement is fairly smooth and fluid, but with just enough give to make precise autofocus adjustments easy. There are no hard stops at either end of the focusing ring.

Optical image stabilisation needs to be turned off in-camera, as there’s no switch or button on the lens itself.

 The Fujifilm XC 50-230mm f/4.5-6.7 OIS II comes with a supplied plastic bayonet hood to be used to prevent flare in bright sunlight. You also get the front and rear caps.
