Fujinon XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR II
Fujinon Red Badge: Uncompromising Quality. Advanced Technology. The Pinnacle of Excellence
Nine years after its predecessor (the original Fujinon XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR lens), Fujifilm’s flagship f/2.8 standard zoom lens is reborn. Fujinon XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR II lens features groundbreaking design updates that surpass mere evolutionary progress, plus broader video capabilities to help it excel in a wider range of scenarios. Compact and lightweight, this zoom fits in the palm of your hand, yet delivers image quality to rival a prime lens.
Minimal Size, Maximum Performance
Cutting-Edge Optical Tech in a Lens Just 95mm (3.74 inches) Long:
Advances in lens manufacturing techniques have led to a major drop in XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR II lens’s size and weight compared to its predecessor, XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR. Improved polishing and machining, plus advanced assembly techniques, mean the second generation lens is now 11mm shorter and approximately 37% lighter than its predecessor. The filter thread has also been decreased to 72mm, so the new lens uses the same filters as the original XF 50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR.
A First for Video
New Features for Hybrid Creation Use:
Although primarily created for stills photographers, XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR II lens also caters to the needs of video creatives. For the first time on an XF Lens, a switch allows users to disable the aperture ring’s click stops for smooth, near-silent exposure control, free from clicks and vibrations.
