Fujifilm XF 18-55mm F2.8-4 R LM OIS

The Fujifilm XF 18-55mm F2.8-4 R LM OIS is much more than just a standard kit lens. It's remarkably sharp in the image centre almost throughout the entire focal range, except at full 55mm telephoto where optimum sharpness isn't achieved until f/8.

FUJIFILM FUJINON XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS Lens - BRAND NEW review

Fujifilm has done very well with this lens, making it more than ''just'' a kit lens, and perhaps justifying its comparatively hefty price tag.

Fujinon XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS review by abzeal

I got this lens with my Fuji X-E1 kit and I have not been disappointed. Past experience was primarily with Pentax DSLRs and SLRs for reference. It's very well made, not quite like a rock but definitely very sturdy. The plastic lens hood is perhaps the only disappointing part.
Pros:
  • Build quality
  • Excellent OIS
  • decent aperture
  • Low CAs
  • Vignette and Distortions
Cons:
  • Picture quality not quite up to the primes
  • auto focus is better with new firmware but still not as fast as other CSC rivals

FUJIFILM FUJINON XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS Lens - BRAND NEW review

The Fujinon XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS may be the hottest reason to enter the Fuji system. It is amazingly sharp throughout the zoom and relevant aperture range. That is except for a high amount of field curvature at 18mm which make it necessary to stop down quite a bit in order to have an...
