[Amazon.ca] Fujifilm zoom lens XF 55-200mm/50-140mm - $674/$1750

This is excellent! I've had my eye on the 55-200mm for the greater part of a year waiting for a deal like this. Thought I would have to wait until Fuji rebates but this deal pulled through... Thank you!

I'd jump on their new cameras, except I haven't seen a telephoto under 2K so this is closest one yet. 300mm is still limiting but better than nothing.

Speaking of wildlife photography you probably need this

100-400mm is also on sale @ $1899.99, almost hits the all time lowest $1824

The 50-140 is also available grey market at eGlobalCentral for $1169 USD ($1550 CAD). This means no warranty and and I personally wouldn't go for it, but it's an option. The XC 50-230 f/4.5-6.7 is available from the same site for $220 USD ($290 CAD). This one is significantly cheaper than you can find it in Canada and I would choose it over buying locally. At some point they had it for under 200 CAD but it hasn't been that low in a while. It's a good lens, but the barrel is plastic and it obviously can't compete with the two higher priced options. And it's slower of course.

I've purchased from this site and they're legit. Shipping and duties are included in the price, and they're brand new product. Many of these products are available much cheaper overseas and they're just importing them, but they're not an authorized dealer.

The 55-200 is a very capable lens. Get a 10-24/4 for normal use and a 56/1.2 (cheaper non-APD version is good enough) for portrait together with the 55-200/3.5-4.8 when you need a bit of reach and you'll have yourself a very compact travel kit!

i have the XC version that's 50-230mm OIS. really great lens for the $300 i paid. the XF is a beast, but was heavier than what i was looking for.
