Fujifilm XF 16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR Lens

There is always a compromise between the convenience of a zoom adaptable focal length and the image quality it can deliver, but the Fujifilm XF 16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR Lens is a different breed of lens. Designed for APS-C-format FUJIFILM X-Mount mirrorless cameras and offers a 24-84mm equivalent, this Fujifilm lens is built to offer the versatility of a zoom lens with the ultimate image quality of a prime and is a fast, standard zoom providing a constant f/2.8 aperture throughout, making it exceptionally versatile for capturing a wide variety of subjects. Its optical design incorporates 3 aspherical elements and 3 extra-low dispersion elements, which help to reduce distortion, spherical aberrations, and control chromatic aberration.

A standard zoom like this Fuji XF lens is anything but standard in terms of the subjects it lets you cover without changing lenses. At 16mm, you can record every detail in big landscape scenes, towering architecture, or cramped interiors. Zoom in to 24mm or 35mm and you have got a perfect lens for groups, street, or documentary photos. And up to around 50mm, you are perfectly placed for portraits and close-ups. Of course, there is every focal length between those settings to make use of, too. Plus, this Fuji 16 55mm lens uses a high-speed linear motor that can focus as fast as 0.02 seconds, so it will react to the moment just as fast as you do. Combine the fast AF with Fujifilm’s Face/Eye Detection AF technology for perfect portraits, or use it in Zone or Tracking mode on action subjects.

More details:  

• No compromise - This lens manages to strike the perfect balance of sharpness with smooth bokeh. It delivers true-to-life colors never seen before in a zoom lens. A professional, large-aperture zoom lens must produce stunning images and the Fuji lens uses a nine-blade diaphragm to help minimize spherical aberrations. The lens is made of 17 elements in 12 groups, which include three aspherical elements to reduce any distortion and spherical aberrations.
• Control the light - FUJIFILM's proprietary multilayer coating HT-EBC (High Transmittance Electron Beam Coating) is used to control ghosting and flares. Nano GI Coating is also used to reduce ghosting and flare from light coming at diagonal angles.
• Cover every angle - You would need to carry four XF prime lenses to replicate the focal range of this zoom lens. However, with the Fujifilm XF 16 55mm f 2.8 R LM WR lens, you get every mm in between 16mm and 55mm to fine-tune your composition even more. This convenience while maintaining amazing image quality gives you an extra advantage versus carrying four fixed focal length lenses.
• Capture every detail - The AF system is based on a high-speed linear motor that can focus as fast as 0.02 seconds^*1. It's impossible to know when something dramatic is going to happen but you want to be ready when it does. This Fuji 16 55mm f 2.8 lens reacts as quickly as you do when those precious moments occur.
• Ready for all environments - Any professional walk-around lens needs to be ready to go in all shooting conditions, especially adverse weather. The dust- and moisture-resistant construction of the Fujifilm 16 55mm lens allows you to immerse yourself in shooting, whatever the weather.^*2
