Fujifilm
The Fujifilm XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR is a fast, professional-grade standard zoom for Fujifilm X-mount APS-C cameras that aims to deliver constant speed, robust build and high optical performance in a single lens. With a bright f/2.8 constant aperture throughout the zoom range, it provides consistent exposure and depth-of-field control from 16mm wide-angle to 55mm short-telephoto — a highly flexible range that covers landscapes, environmental portraits, events and reportage. The lens’s linear-motor autofocus offers quick and accurate subject acquisition, while the weather-sealed construction improves reliability for outdoor assignments in variable conditions. Optically, the design prioritises sharpness across the frame and controlled aberrations, making it a popular choice for photographers who want one high-quality zoom to cover core shooting needs without changing lenses. Although not as compact or light as kit zooms, the XF 16–55 f/2.8 balances handling and resolution for demanding real-world use, and it remains a staple for enthusiasts and professionals who require consistent performance and a versatile focal range in a single workhorse optic.
