Fuji shooters have had a binary choice between two standard zooms – the XF 18-55mm F2.8-4 OIS (my review here) and the XF 16-55mm F2.8 (my review here). One offered image stabilization, the other offered a weather-sealed build and larger maximum aperture. But now there is a third choice – the Fujinon XF 16-80mm F4 OIS which gives photographers the option of having both weather sealing and (incredibly good) OIS along with a broader zoom range, though at the price of a smaller maximum aperture. The 16-80mm F4 fills the void often occupied by a 24-105mm lens in full frame, with an equivalent aperture of 24-120mm. This is a compelling option if the lens bears out in real life. Stay tuned for my verdict of how well Fuji has done with executing this 5x zoom range lens. I’ve done this review on a Fujfilm X-T3 camera body. You can get a sense of lens performance in advance of my full review by checking out the photos below.
