The XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR Lens from Fujifilm is a weather-sealed lens with a 35mm equivalent focal length of 24-82.5mm, making it a versatile standard-length zoom that's ready to handle changing weather conditions. A constant maximum aperture of f/2.8 aperture lends itself to working in low light conditions and gives you control over focus placement with its shallow depth of field.
Internal focusing and the Twin Linear Motor AF system ensures autofocus is fast and near silent, while 17 elements in 12 groups with three extra-low dispersion (ED) elements and three aspherical elements work to eliminate chromatic and spherical aberrations and distortion. Nano-GI and HT-EBC coating minimise surface reflections, and prevent lens flare and ghosting.
The lens barrel incorporates 14 distinct weather seals, making it both moisture and dust resistant, and a 9-blade circular diaphragm renders pleasing out-of-focus 'bokeh' areas. By combining this lens with select X-Series camera bodies with Lens Modulation Optimiser (LMO) technology, the performance from the lens is improved even further. LMO corrects for diffraction to produce images with edge-to-edge sharpness and create a realistic three-dimensional effect, even at small apertures.
