Pros: Robust, sharp lens, perfect to hold attached to the machine as an all-rounder

Cons: Some specimens have problems with the diaphragm ring... read below

Opinion: Perfect lens to keep in the car, 2.8 sharp, not too bulky and gives a nice feeling of robustness. With this and a fixed 1.4 you can already safely cope with most situations. So far with regard to photos of events, weddings, portraits, family photos etc. I have not felt the need for a longer focal length. The only negative note that no one in the Italian forums says is that some specimens (perhaps especially in the second-hand market) have problems with the diaphragm ring at 2.8. Let me explain. Passing from any diaphragm to 2.8 the ring has a very light play that makes the apertures change the apertures totally at random. So it can happen that during a service in which you have to switch quickly for example from f4 to f2.8 you must necessarily be sure that the camera is shooting at 2.8 because a very light micro displacement of the ring is enough to have the apertures busted. A known and very reported problem in English language in various forums. It happened to me both with a specimen of the 16-55 and with a 50-140.

Pros: Excellent sharpness! accurate construction, No Flare, WR, Optics avowedly Professional. A masterpiece!

Cons: It is not stabilized, to have it you have to donate a kidney!

Opinion: If we want to talk about Fuji Zoom Lentics with attributes well.... this for me is definitely the "all-rounder" Zoom lens par excellence! Installed on our Fuji, I have an X-H2s, it is definitely a perfect combination from every point of view. The frames it returns are nothing short of stunning, at any focal length and already from f / 2.8 it is wonderfully sharp, if we then close a Stop and beyond the sharpness it becomes even exaggerated! The blur is nice creamy ideal for portraits, more than suitable for Street Photography and of course also suitable for landscapes, wedding photos, family, etc. etc., a versatile, reliable zoom and AF both fast and precise and silent. The diaphragm ring is very precise with the right Click, that of the focal range and MF are frictioned at the right point! It is made with first-rate material, even that bit of plastic material used and first-rate, NO plasticaccia! Put simply, this Fuji Zoom lens is simply a C A P O L A V O R O! Although this Zoom has been in production since 2015, it remains cmq always current, valid and highly sought after for the Fuji kit, it is to have absolutely! Make some sacrifices but buy it is really worth all the money it costs and in my opinion even something more! Good shot to all!

Pros: Optical quality with capital Q, granite construction, great sharpness, 77mm filters, tropicalization, autofocus

Cons: Dimensions, WEIGHT WEIGHT WEIGHT WEIGHT WEIGHT.

Opinion: The best Fujinon lens I've had in stock: excellent optical quality, no intrusive flare, no AC, distortion and vignetting completely solvable. Silent and fast autofocus. Convenient filter size 77mm, common to the 24-70/24-105 f4 to which it is attributable, granite construction with very precise diaphragm ring and effective tropicalization. Compared to my fujinon 23 1.4 and 56 1.2, it is sharper and crisper at any aperture so, given this premise, I do not consider the cost a defect. Defect instead the weight and dimensions almost from Full Frame. They are already felt on X-T4 so imagine on all the other smaller bodies ... A professional perspective in all respects that brings home any job, but that in my opinion has little to do with the philosophy of use Fujifilm and the idea of aps-c.

Pros: Extraordinary optical yield, solidity, WR protection.

Cons: Dimensions and weight. Cost.

Opinion: I bought this used lens and I was quite wary, but once mounted you immediately realize that you are dealing with a champion, who replaces several fixed optics very well. It is sharp, does not suffer from particular aberrations, has a nice contrast. The focus is fast (I use an X-H1 and an X-T3), only internal stabilization is missing, but all in all it does not seem to me a big problem. It has the only disadvantage of being big and heavy, but, for those who have had a Canon 24-70 or a Nikkor 24-70, it should not be that impressive.

Pros: Professional-grade optics

Cons: All those related to bulk and weight for those who see limitations from these two factors.

Opinion: Found used only four months at a great price, I could not fail to seize the opportunity. It was therefore more of a whim than a real necessity. I will not go into the positive technical details because they are known and I have verified them too: the lens is of a non-questionable quality and the images it imprints on the sensors are just as much. I can only add that it is not suitable for those who love to be light, for those who love the street, for those who like not to give too much in the eye with the digital in hand and for those who have a reduced camera body like the X-S10 on which I grafted it. And I would add that it is a frankly wasted object for aspiring student photographers like me. Kept twenty days and resold to return to the most suitable for me 18-55 and 35 f / 1.4.
