My kit is stratified by lens type.

X-Pro2 for primes.

X-T2 for zooms.

I used to think the 16-55 was overkill for a mirrorless setup. Now it is the perfect everyday lens paired with the X-T2.

No experience with the 50 F2 but AF on the 16-55 is about the fastest of any Fuji lens.

This is exactly how I roll as well.  16-55 on XT-2 and 23/1.4 on X-Pro 2.
