Pros: Yield, f/1.4, weight, dimensions, WR

Cons: AF, MF clutch (argument below), chromatic aberration

Opinion: Lens that I love, but that is not without problems. The AF is not able to track subjects, especially at f/1.4-2. the MF clutch is very comfortable in landscape and astro, hell in dynamic situations: it doesn't take much for it to move, putting the camera in MF and making you lose some shots, even if it doesn't sprint completely towards the MF position. AC marked against the light (especially, but not only, with metal objects). Unfortunately a new version is missing, the 18 is not a 16 and already the 16 is a hair tight every now and then, for my taste.

Pros: All... or almost

Cons: Focal length "difficult"

Opinion: Exceptional lens from a technical point of view, one of the best fuji, together with the emblazoned 23mm 1.4, 56 1.2 , 90 2 etcetc I confirm and subscribe to all the notes and positive details already described by the other reviewers and I give vote 10. Exceptional x architectural photos. Personally I only understood that for me it is a "difficult" focal length, in the sense that I used it little. The architecture x my use I can take it home even with the legendary 18 55, although it obviously does not offer similar performance to the 16. It's the only reason I gave it away, buying a 10 24 which, however, I'm giving away. So my exclusive prerogative. On the 10th this 16th is worth them all.

Pros: Construction, brightness, tropicalization, image quality.

Cons: Inevitably more bulky than the f2 wr series lenses; a few years on the shoulders.

Opinion: I bought this lens at the release of Fuji's new 18mm f1.4, taking advantage of a price drop that made the 16mm very attractive. I was satisfied with the build quality, image quality and color rendering. Lens in full Fuji style. In my opinion, the management of distortion is also formidable. The weight and dimensions are much greater than Fuji's F2 series, but the increased brightness and the different optical scheme require necessary different ingomrbi. The AF is not among the fastest of Fuji lenses but still performing. Compared to the new 18mm it suffers some structural "gap" related to age, especially in terms of sharpness perhaps, but given the costs the 16mm remains at the moment an excellent choice.

Pros: Distortion correction, robustness, balance.

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: Optics that I use often and with great satisfaction. Often it is with me paired with the 35 1.4Ladeful whiteness, very well balanced colors, blurred capable of isolating a subject even with a not at all reduced angle of view like this. Focus more than good, beautifully balanced weight. I think it's an obvious example of how good an optic can be without necessarily having to force yourself to sell a kidney to buy it. Congratulations.

Pros: All. In a year I did not find a defect to this lens in the photo field!

Cons: Maybe the lampshed.

Opinion: Lens purchased to try a fixed lens... since that day I have detached it very few times! Incredible sharpness, very little flare, almost zero distortions, minimum focus distance almost from macros and plus wr. Absolutely recommended! Also tested for alternative portraits, street and "still life". The price from new is high but in gray markets it takes home at an honest price when compared to the quality offered! Beautiful colors and, I repeat, scream sharpness. At 1.4 it is clearly a soft thread but well above average
