Hi.

The 16-55 has an amazing potential. Please kindly consider it. You are getting a bag of very good primes with this lens.

I got 16-55 on a Fuji sale some time ago. Once I took sample shots with it, I have understood why so many people here had called it a "bag of primes." I really got four prime lenses in one. I have paired it with X-T2, and this is my go to kit now.

Please kindly check out the link below – for comparison between 16-55 and various primes, with full-size JPGs included. Comparing those sample images made me buy the 16-55. My own images taken with 16-55 have further confirmed the superb optical qualities of the lens.

Also, just wanted to mention this... one can "test" various Fujinon lenses here:

Thank you and kindest regards.
