Anyway someone just spotted this patent.... Probably going to be a lens one day.
Not sure I like the idea of Fuji moving in this direction. A 18-250 do everything type zoom lens. But I guess w/ the xt1, they are putting more into lenses that the average dslr users are used to seeing in the lineup.

I wish they would do a 135f2.8.

But it's always good to have one...
an 18-250 is honestly quite amazing even for an APS-C camera. That's 27-375 by FF length...the only question is where the F3.5 stops happening.

If it is anything like DSLR super zooms it'll have lost a stop somewhere around 50-60mm.
This is for the Nikon 18-300mm (http://www.bythom.com/Nikkor18-300lensreview.htm):
18mm = f/3.5
28mm = f/4
50mm = f/5.3
105mm+ = f/5.6

Such a pointless lens.
Either way, they have already given us a solid lineup of amazing primes - barring a 135 equiv there's not much else we could ask for!

Agreed. Waiting for the 135 and fast prime. But otherwise, a useless lens doesn't make the 56 and 23 less amazing.
