Fuji XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR Lens Review | Planopora

The new „pro“ zoom from Fuji is finally starting to hit the streets. My favorite local camera store, Competitive Cameras, actually got two in last weekend. The first guy on the list drove halfway across the state of Texas to get his. I was number two. I became a fan of Fuji when they released the XT-1 last year. It had the feel of the manual cameras I was used to from the days of film, but with a size and feature set of a modern digital camera. I also really loved the size and build quality of their prime lenses. The 23mm and 56mm are incredible lenses. Combined with the XT-1, they make for a potent street shooting and travel combination. Which brings us to their new big brother, the XF 16-55mm f/2.8 zoom. This definitely marks Fuji’s attempt at producing a pro-grade lens and the size reflects it. While I’m not selling any of my primes any time soon, I also know there is a time and place for a solid, fast short zoom…….
