Fujinon XF 16mm f/2.8

Chris and Jordan from DPReviewTV published their quick review about the Fujifilm Fujinon XF 16mm f/2.8 WR (video above – entirely shot on Fujifilm X-T3).

Here are their findings:

• perfect lens for street photography
• compact and affordable
• XF 16mm f/1.4 is sharper, but way bigger and heavier
• XF 16mm f/2.8 pretty decent at f/2.8 and sharper in corners at f/4
• very quick AF and also smooth for video
• beautiful bokeh throughout the aperture range
• at the price point, as to expect, a bit of chromatic aberration and distortion
• fun, affordable and compact
• great price point
• Fuji gives us amazing choice when it comes to APS-C lens selection
