Questions & Answers

jeffrey S : What is the diameter of the front element?WILLIAM L : 72mm
JON C : Are you sure that this lens has OIS (as listed)? Most Fuji X lenses include OIS in the name, if they have it. This lens does not (include OIS in the name), but the 18-55 does.STEVE B : no,it does not. The older one does, but is not constant apertureEDWARD V : This lens does not have OIS as confirmed by the lens itself which does not have the switch on the lens barrel as does my long zoom, nor does the lens manual mention it having the OIS. The lens however provides excellent images and is easy to hold steady.Richard K : It does not have an OIS function that can be turned on and off as some of the longer zoom lenses have.Raghuraman N : This lens does not have image stabilizer. With the F2.8 throughout the zoom range, I did not see its compelling need.STEVEN S : No. this lens does not have any type of OIS!MORAD B : No OIS on this lens.NATHAN R : It does not have any form of OIS/image stabilization. Fuji stated that they would have had to compromise on size or image quality to include OIS.NATHAN T : This lens does not have oisPAUL G : That is interesting that it is not in the name. I am 90+ percent sure that it does but can. It say absolutely. However, the lens is terrific and I own may Fuji X mount lenses.BONIFACIO G : This lens does NOT have OISJOEL L : This lens does NOT have OIS.
THOMAS G : FYI: The lens focal length range for the lens this hood is intended for is 18-55 mm not 16-55 mm. Just a note to correct any confusion about what lens it fits. ????

Must have!

This lens is awesome! I own the 18-55 also BUT the 18-55 is not as good as this lens. This lens is sharper, built like a tank and the fixed 2.8 is a necessity if you tend to shoot in low light. I highly recommend it and consider it a must have.

High Quality Zoom

I've done a few sessions and some personal photos with this since getting it and I'm a huge fan. I just switched over from Canon and this is my first Fuji zoom lens. It's sharp, fast, and produces a nice image.

Great series of prime lenses in one zoom.

Great multipurpose zoom. Very well built. Awesome overall quality. A real series of prime lenses in one zoom! I love the 16mm especially. So convenient when doing street photography and shooting a building from the opposite sidewalk. The size and weight of this zoom aren?t a problem at all.

Leagues better than the 16-80

Truly exceptional lens. Razor sharp, even wide open. I was worried about the size and weight. It?s one of the larger zooms from Fuji, but still perfectly reasonable given the image quality.

A gem in the Fuji lens arsenal.

A very sharp lens and suitable for the everyday photographer. Constant f/2.8 aperture renders tack sharp images and the build quality is fantastic. Will likely be a go to lens for some time. Very highly recommend this lens to anyone using Fuji X Series camera system.

Fujifilm’s Most Versatile Lens

This is currently my preferred lens for the X system from Fujifilm. Probably their most versatile lens, I think it replaces several lenses. It’s superbly sharp and covers a great range of focal lengths. With its weather resistance features, constant f/2.8 aperture and focal length this is a great lens for travel photography. If you’re on the fence, rent it, otherwise you can’t go wrong having this lens.

Bought the lens after years of contemplation

I contemplated about buying this lens for over 2 years, reading and watching many countless reviews. The majority of them said it only offers a small IQ improvement over the 18-55mm kit lens. They said most users are better off with the 18-55mm because the 16-55mm is heavier, larger, expensive and has no IS. With the current holiday sale, I decided to try the lens myself. Well, I was impressed. This lens is sharp. There's a pop to the images - whether that is a combination of sharpness, contrast and color - I don't know. I'm using it with the X-H1 and the balance is good and I really don't notice the additional weight. Very happy with it. No regrets buying it!

Zoom lens versatility, prime lens quality

Very sharp zoom lens that matches the performance of certain prime lenses. If you were to only have one fuji lens this would probably have to be it. The build quality is solid and is reflected in the weight of the lens. The quality of the amazing pictures you are going to take will help you forget about the weight of this lens.

Worth the Weight

A hefty beast. While the 18-55 kit lens is very solid and economical, there is no comparison to the 16-55 in quality. I was shocked at how much better even just silly test shots were in my living room.

It's great!

This lens makes my photo life so convenient because though it is a little heavy I don't really have to carry too many other lenses. It's also got great build quality and feels great in the hands. There's this one thing that also bothered me with external zooms where if you hold it upside-down the lens would sort of 'fall' and extend itself - but this one manages to not do that. It doesn't sound like a big thing but it does get knocked around when hanging on my person and I don't want to worry about it breaking. This lens is great!

It's great!

Bought this lens with the 6L sling and strap lite. This lens is really impressive with it's build quality and image quality. I try to carry it everywhere I go because it just makes me want to take more pictures but the only down-side is that it is a little heavy for longer walks. I don't really mind the weight though, especially because I don't find the need to carry too many other lenses with the zoom - extremely convenient! I also carry the sling everywhere with me, even if I'm not carrying a camera because it actually does fit a lot into it without feeling too bulky.

Beast of a Lens

I've been a Fuji prime shooter for years and finally plunked down to get this constant aperture 24-85ish equivalent and it's worth every penny. Solid, well built, weather resistant, the images are sharp and vivid. My wife immediately noticed the different between this and the kit lens images. Yes it's heavy, yes it's massive, but if you can stand the added weight you'll find yourself with a near perfect one lens walkaround kit.

About Fujifilm 16-55mm

PRO REVIEW by Erik Valind, Lifestyle and Portrait Photographer

"This is my go-to lens when on the job. It is sharp, fast-focusing, and whether you’re using it at the wide or telephoto ends, it has impressive performance. Better yet, because it’s weather-sealed, I can take it on my most adventurous shoots. "

Explore the world of precision photography with the FUJINON XF 16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR lens. Designed for the discerning photographer, this high-quality lens is your perfect partner for capturing breathtaking landscapes, intimate portraits, and everything in between.

With a constant aperture of F2.8 across its versatile 16-55mm focal length, this lens delivers crisp, clear images from wide-angle to medium-telephoto ranges. Its state-of-the-art optical design, featuring 17 elements in 12 groups, eliminates various forms of aberration, promising edge-to-edge sharpness across the entire zoom spectrum.

The lens is equipped with groundbreaking Nano-GI coating technology, which significantly reduces ghosting and flare, resulting in vivid, clear images. Its focal versatility, ranging from a wide-angle 24mm - perfect for vast landscapes - to a medium-telephoto 84mm, adept for poignant portraits, makes this lens a true gem for varied shooting scenarios.

The FUJINON XF 16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR lens also boasts unparalleled image quality. It incorporates three aspherical elements and three ED glass lens elements, reducing both spherical aberration and distortion, ensuring unparalleled sharpness from edge to edge. The HT-EBC (High Transmittance Electron Beam Coating) enhances clarity by controlling ghosting and flare, ensuring minimal ghosting even with diagonal incident light.

Experience the mastery of bokeh with nine rounded aperture blades meticulously designed to produce a smooth, entrancing bokeh, both in the foreground and background. When paired with an X Series camera featuring the Lens Modulation Optimiser (LMO) technology, the results are even more astounding - images brim with edge-to-edge sharpness and a lifelike three-dimensional depth.

Never miss a moment with the lens's high-speed AF system. The revolutionary Twin Linear Motor ensures autofocus that's swift and whisper-quiet, clocking in an impressive AF speed of just 0.06 seconds. The integration of Phase Detection AF when paired with compatible X Series camera bodies further accentuates the precision and speed.

Durability meets elegance in this lens. It's fortified with weather-sealing at 14 strategic points, making it resistant to adverse weather conditions and even the chill of 14 Degree F (-10-degree C). Its robust build, with metallic rings and a brass-made lens mount, exudes premium quality. Yet, it weighs just about 60% of conventional full-size systems, offering unparalleled ease of use.

Optimized for seamless operation, photographers will appreciate the tactile experience provided by the meticulously designed focus and aperture rings. The AF+MF function further elevates this, allowing autofocus with subsequent manual fine-tuning.

Armed with these extraordinary features, the FUJINON XF 16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR lens is poised to elevate your photographic pursuits. Dive into a world of precision, clarity, and brilliance with every shot. Experience the difference with this innovative, reliable, and versatile lens.
