Fujifilm Fujinon 16-50mm F/3.5-5.6 XC OIS II
The Fujifilm 16-50mm F/3.5-5.6 XC OIS II lens is a wide-angle zoom lens designed for the Fuji X-Mount system. With a 35mm equivalent of 24-76mm (83.2°-71.7° angle of view) the Fujifilm 16-50mm delivers wide-angle performance perfect for dynamic landscape, architectural, and interior photography. The powerful Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) reduces camera shake and is the perfect solution for handheld and lowlight photography.
Smooth, accurate, high-speed focus is achieved through an enhanced inner focusing system. The Fujifilm 16-50mm uses lightweight internal glass as well as a high-precision stepper motor to keep the lens near silent. The optical design includes three aspherical and one extra-low dispersion (ED) element to reduce chromatic aberrations and keep your images sharp and clear and to reduce ghosting and lens flare. Macro-focusing allows you to get as close as 5.9 inches.
