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.

To each their own. I don’t walk around town with the 16-55 mounted on my camera, it isn’t a street lens by any means. It needs a tripod. Excellent landscape lens.

You need a tripod if the 16-55 is on your camera? What, do you exclusively used low ISO and/or low shutter speeds? Unsteady hands?
