Re: XC 15-45 or XC 16-50 OR XF 18-55 on X-T20 for beginner ?

I own 16-50 and 18-55.

For 15-45 I always read good things about its IQ, but is with powered zoom - I do not like this.

I never compared IQ between my 16-50 and 18-55, but for my needs both are ok. I prefer and almost always use 16-50, because of the wide end and because of its small size. I use 18-55 only when need more light.

I can share lot of images with 16-50, and at 16mm I can tell IQ is better than 16-80 at 16mm.

Also I am sure 16-50 is much cheaper, I got it from UK (OIS vII) for about 170 Euro.

Regards!
