Fujifilm XC 15-45mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS PZ

Pros: Sharpness, wide angle of view (23 mm eq), light weight and portability, stabilizer, minimum distance MAF (12-13 cm)

Cons: Motorized zoom ring (imprecise to handle), excessive reflections at night, plastic construction

Opinion: I bought this lens with the purpose of having a wide angle (15 mm correspond to 23 mm in FF) with an acceptable distortion level, autofocus and it was native to the system, in a price range is very low (€269) compared to other fixed wide that surely will have a whole other returns, but also a completely different price. Used at full aperture the lens is already sharp in the Center and the edges, but between f/5.6 and f/11 is a blade across the frame. Definitely not good for shooting at night because of the diaphragm that is anything but bright, unless you use a tripod. Considered as a 15 mm f/3.5 with image stabilization, autofocus, and excellent sharpness I think he has few rivals, considering that then a range of focal lengths that is very useful for travel photography, and exits all-around. Uncomfortable focal selection with motorized ring, I'm hoping a firmware update that could set a fixed focal range (15-16-18-23-35-45) in addition to the continuous zoom. Very plasticky but in line with the price. Bokeh that are not treated as a significant feature of this lens. I recommend it in toto, maybe more than 18-55 I own and that gives an entirely different idea of strength, but it also has a range of focal lengths slightly less functional than the travel photography in General.

Fujifilm XF 18-55 f/2.8-4R LM OIS

Pros: Optical quality, color rendering, construction, reliability

Cons: Blurred at f4 on the long side is not particularly "poetic"

Opinion: I own this unique perspective for my x-1. Beside the same lens screw m42, which thanks to the focus peaking of the machine make volare.rnTrovo the objective in question indispensable for most uses. E 'extremely resolvent, has good colors, and a good autofocus system (can not imagine the lightning systems Reflex, however, from that point of view there is quite detachment, although the autofocus is accurate, it is certainly fast). It 'also relatively lightweight and easy to trasportare.rnNon particularly love the blurred this goal, a little' too anonymous. And perhaps this is why this lens often couple with other raw brighter. rnTuttavia I consider it indispensable as covers with superb quality at all focal lengths I need, except for a few casi.rnUn'ottica kit that should not be considered as such, but rather as a lens with all papers in order.
