XF 16mm F2.8 R WR overview
The Fujifilm XF 16mm F2.8 R WR is a 16mm f/2.8 prime for APS-C cameras on Fujifilm X, announced by Fujifilm in February 2019. 27 cameras we track take it without an adapter.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits landscapes and interiors as well as travel. It is a weaker pick for close-ups.
New, it sells for £349 in the United Kingdom (Cambrian Photography).
Worth comparing it with the Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary and Sigma 15mm F1.4 DC | Contemporary.
