"While all brands tend to put quite a few letters in lens names, Fujifilm is among the worst offenders (though still not as bad as Tamron). Its Fujinon lenses tend to read a bit like alphabet soup, with letters coming before and after the focal length and aperture information. While they are straightforward once you know what they mean, it can be headache-inducing to decipher at first. In this article, we'll break down the different acronyms found in Fujifilm lens names so you can feel like a pro when shopping for or discussing Fujifilm's lenses."
