    Great overall lense for multi purpose photography. Might be not your cup of tea if you are coming from primers but I wish that I would purchased this lense from the beginning when I got my XT-3. Instead of it I bought 35mm f2 primer which is a great lense for the budget. When I have traveled I have missed a lot of cool shots because it was either not wide enough or I could not zoom in. Beware it is pretty big and heavy compare to primers so if you are looking for something light it might not be for you.

    Must have lens for FujiFilm cameras. Sharp and reliable focus. Heavy but feels fine on the XT lineup of cameras and similar.

    Great sharpness and quality, if I had one complaint it would be that it does not have a switch on the lens to go from automatic to manual focus, but my xt5 has one on the body so it's fine.

    When I was looking into making the switch from Sony to Fuji, the first thing that caught my eye was this lens. 1. I knew I wanted to do video and I would want a lens that can zoom in and out without the actual lens extending 2. One that allowed me to shoot in lower light conditions if needed and provided some bokeh 3. I also wanted it to have in-body stabilization (OIS) to prevent video shakiness This one checked all those boxes.

    Crisp, sharp, quality are but few of the attributes of the images produced by this lens. A worthy complement of my XT2. However, it is not for you if you cannot put up with its size which happens to be on the larger side, a small price to pay for the images which will surely last longer that the feeling on your shoulder.

    I recently purchased this to use with my also newly purchased FujiFilm X-S10 as a photography novice. So far, I’d say it’s a really great first lens because of its wide range. I’ve mostly used it for nature/landscape photography thus far. Really happy with my purchase!

    Overall quality is good as expected from Fuji. Weight is reasonable and focusing speed is ok. One big drawback is the low light workability. The lense will produce blurry image even using f2.8 at moderate low light condition. Hope Fuji will build a new version with image stabilization in the near future.

    Excellent lens, but the size was too big for the X-T1 and almost defeats the purpose of having a mirrorless camera. It's the almost the size of a full frame zoom. If the size doesn't bother you, then it's perfect

    This lense is a nice mid range lense. You need to get a little close to the subject to make it work, the aperture (sp*) is acceptable . All around average lense. Nothing to lose your mind over
