• Precision to Rely On
  FUJINON XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR II lens offers outstanding all-around autofocus performance. The linear motor system that drives the focus element has seen marked improvements compared to XF16- 55mmF2.8 R LM WR first-generation zoom for speed and accuracy, so it’s well equipped to keep up with the fastest X Series bodies, including X-H2S. Precision focus landing is also exceptional, which is critical for videographers. During important takes, focus wobble – or momentary searching for a subject – is minimized.

  • Born to Perform
  The versatility of FUJINON XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR II lens goes far beyond its zoom capability. As a weather-resistant XF lens, it’s dust and moisture-resistant and will continue working perfectly in temperatures as low as -10°C (14°F) when paired with a weather-resistant X Series body. This WR performance is enhanced by a fluorine coating on the front lens element, which repels water, oil, and fingerprints. The close focusing capability has also been improved compared to the previous generation XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR lens and is now just 30cm (11.8 inches) across the entire focal range. This gives a 0.2x maximum magnification-- the equivalent of approximately one-third life-size on a 35mm camera.
