I had hoped that I could be one of those who could live with a 23mm F2 for all my needs, but I just can’t feel comfortable restricted like that. Carrying the 16-55 is heavy, but not as heavy as bringing 2 or more lenses and having to change. There are some situations that I know that I can just bring one prime and it will suffice, but most of the time, the most practical solution for me is just to stick the 16-55 on my X-T30 and live with it.

How does the lens handle on your X-T30? I have an X-T20 with additional grip and have been considering this lens but just worried it might be too front heavy, particularly on a tripod for landscape photography.

Even on my X-T4 body it is big and heavy, but so far happy with pics from the setup.  I have no buyer's remorse over this lens purchase.
