Pro-Grade Standard Zoom. With its 24-76mm equivalent focal length after sensor crop, the Fuji XF 16-50mm f/2.8-4.8 R LM WR is an excellent general-purpose zoom. The bright f/2.8 maximum aperture lets you shoot in low light and, when combined with the rounded nine-blade diaphragm, renders smooth bokeh for portraits and detail shots.

Linear Autofocus Motor. The 16-50mm’s linear autofocus motor combines smooth, fast, and nearly silent performance with top-shelf tracking and subject detection, making it great for stills and video. A 9.45-inch minimum focusing distance and 0.3x maximum magnification let you get close to your subjects.

Optical Design. The nine-group/eleven-element optical formula includes three aspherical elements and three extra-low dispersion elements, which minimize chromatic aberrations and fringing throughout the zoom range while keeping things sharp, accurate, and distortion-free. This optical design also contributes to the 16-50’s light weight and travel-ready build.

Compact, Professional Build. An internal-zooming mechanism keeps this lens compact. The 16-50 is rated for use in temperatures as low as 14°F, and its barrel is weather sealed against moisture and dust, making it a workhorse in even the poorest of conditions.
