The FUJINON XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR II is a true workhorse lens for both photo and video creatives, combining exceptional optical performance across an endlessly useful range of focal lengths with all-new video-specific features.

 

Versatile Quality

The FUJINON XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR II is the X Series’s next-generation standard zoom, setting a new benchmark for quality and performance. With a 35mm equivalent focal length range of 24-84mm and constant F2.8 aperture for shallow depth-of-field imagery and impressive low-light performance – as well as 40.2-megapixel resolving power – it combines the flexibility of a zoom lens with the optical quality of a prime. This makes it a guaranteed first choice for discerning creatives.

Approximately 37% lighter than its predecessor, the XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR II takes full advantage of recent advancements in optical design, boasting improved performance across the board housed in a smaller, lighter body. Retaining the hardy weather-resistance of the previous model while taking up less room in a kitbag, it’s also ideal for image makers who regularly work on location.

Brand new advanced video features such as the de-clicked aperture setting and adjustable manual focus ring give the XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR II significantly improved filmmaking functionality, letting hybrid creators enjoy seamless focus pulls and mid-take exposure adjustments. The new 11-bladed iris also grants smoother, rounder bokeh for even more filmic footage.

Autofocus performance has seen all-round improvement, with an upgraded linear motor system ensuring the lens can keep up with the fastest X Series camera bodies, like the FUJIFILM X-H2S. For filmmakers, precision focus landing has been improved and focus wobble minimised, ensuring consistent performance and perfectly sharp footage.

VERSATILE STANDARD ZOOM With a focal range of 16-55mm (35mm equivalent of 24-84mm), the XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR II is an ideal everyday lens for image makers across a range of photographic genres, while the fixed F2.8 maximum aperture delivers prime lens performance.

CLASS-LEADING DESIGN Over a third lighter than its predecessor at only 410g, and measuring just 78.3x95mm, the XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR II packs exceptional performance into a highly portable design. It can resolve for the latest 40-megapixel X Series sensors, and is resistant to dust, moisture and freezing temperatures.

ADVANCED VIDEO FEATURES With its de-clicked aperture setting, the XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR II enables the making of minute adjustments to exposure mid-video recording outside of 1/3-stop increments. Users can also adjust the rotational distance between minimum and infinity focus.
