I've read some comments about lack of sharpness, but the few test shots I've had a chance to take look more than adequately sharp and are certainly crisper than the 16-80.

I think I am able to get consistently great sharpness by focusing my 27mm F2.8 WR lens manually. I believe autofocus results were not consistently great, but I've been manually focusing now and have forgotten exactly how much the results were not great when autofocused.

There are threads here about small random autofocus errors using most any Fuji electronic lens. I saw this myself using an X-T3 and a 50mm F2 WR lens.

Unfortunately, I am quite nearsighted and manual focusing is difficult even with the focus aids provided by the camera. I have no issues with autofocus most of the time as long as I remember to check that the focus point is somewhere near where I want it to be.
