Great optics throughout the entire zoom range. I gave it up since it is too large and heavy. I switched from Canon FF to Fuji X to reduce weight and this lens goes against that ethos.

Would be an excellent choice for those that prefer not to carry around a set of primes, but I personally am going for a more low-key look and this lens screams PHOTOG.

I read through most of this thread and balked at most of the response to the OP.

The OP was asked by DPreview to share his opinion of the product as per the instruction in the screenshot below:

It is a USER review. So why do the majority in this thread have a problem with it?

Do you feel that expressing disagreement over such a review is problematic or somehow not appropriate in a forum such as this?  There’s certainly no issue with presenting a review... positive, negative, or neutral.  However, given the fact that this is a discussion forum, is it unreasonable to expect that the review might generate some differing opinions within the thread?  As long as the discourse remains civil and productive, I’m not sure what the problem is, even if people’s comments are tending towards being a bit negative.

Am I missing something here or did I perhaps misinterpret your concern?
