Re: Comparing the XF 18-55 and XC 16-50 (v2)

IMHO the 18-55 will be completely supplanted by the Sigma 18-50. It's brighter, sharper, lighter, smaller in 2 out of 3 dimensions, focuses closer, and comparable in price with the 18-55 new. There's zero to very little downside picking the Sigma over the XF1855.

The Sigma is missing the OIS and the switches and aperture control.

Besides this I also think its might be a great lens
