Best zoom lens of 2019
As always, there were a lot of high-quality zoom lenses released this year. These include several `reference` models, as new full-frame mirrorless systems from Canon, Nikon and Panasonic start to mature. We`ve gone through everything that came out in 2019, and selected what we think are the standout prime lenses from the past 12 months, but as always - if you think we missed something, let us know in the comments.
Voting runs through December 15th, and once the vote has closed we`ll run a second poll to find your choice for overall product of the year.
Canon
For Canon, 2019 was all about filling out its new EOS R full-frame mirrorless lineup. To that end, the company officially launched several new lenses, including the RF-mount `holy trinity` of F2.8 zooms. From our initial shooting, these new lenses are truly impressive. Meanwhile, the RF 24-240mm is a versatile go-everywhere zoom for EOS R and RP shooters.
Do any of these new zooms deserve a place on our list of best lenses in 2019? Let us know by casting your vote.
Canon RF 15-35mm F2.8L IS USM
Canon RF 24-240mm F4-6.3 IS USM
Canon RF 24-70mm F2.8L IS USM
Canon RF 70-200mm F2.8L IS USM
Fujifilm
Between them, the Fujifilm GF 100-200mm F5.6 and XF 16-80mm F4 fill out the company`s medium format and APS-C lens lineups nicely, offering a versatile telephoto solution and handy walk-around travel zoom lens range, respectively.
Both are great lenses, but do either of them get your vote for best zoom lens of 2019? Cast your vote and let us know.
Fujifilm GF 100-200mm F5.6 R LM OIS WR
Fujifilm XF 16-80mm F4.0 R OIS WR
Nikon
Nikon is slowly expanding its Z-mount mirrorless lens lineup, and this year released two full-frame zoom lenses, the 14-30mm F4 and 24-70mm F2.8. Both are sharp, practical, weather-sealed options for Z6 and Z7 shooters, but are they among the best zoom lenses released in 2019?
