Because I had been waiting for a good stabliser for my phone as I shoot lots of video with my iPhone 6. There are some...

Fujifilm's answer to Canon and Nikon's 70-200mm F2.8 lens is the Fujinon XF50-140mm F2.8 R LM OIS WR lens. A heck of name to remember.

Thanks to a Fujifilm Australia I had the chance to try...
