Fujifilm Fujinon XF 18–55mm F2.8–4 R LM OIS Lens

Aug 25, 2017

Unlike most other camera "kit" lenses, Fuji's 18-55 is very good. I actually still use mine on my X-T2 and am content enough with it not to really want more lenses. It is very sharp stopped down a little (wide open is sharp too, but not as sharp as the 16-55 2.8) and bright enough for general use/travel. Not too large, either, although definitely bigger than the F2 lenses. Unlike Nikon/Canon/Sony/etc. kit lenses, this 18-55 is one you'll end up keeping around and using (unless you prefer the much bigger and non-stabilized 16-55: far superior optics, but at the expense of weight and size).
$370 is a good deal for this lens, assuming you prefer buying new and not used. You can find them used on forums at around $250-$300, depending on condition (but they tend to go fast). New are closer to $600, which I think is too much for this lens.
Highly recommended if you want a general purpose zoom lens for Fuji.
