I had one, sold it used for almost this price. I committed to Fuji viewfinder (XPro 2) for the benefits of rangefinder street shooting, the only Fuji zooms I have now are the ultra wide and one of the long zooms. Had an XT-1, didn't care for it much (versus my Nikon D800e or GX-8... the XT-1 was a tweener bettered on each side...) My only gripe about this lens was that the vignetting was high enough that the automatic in-camera fixes meant significantly increased noise in the corners compared to the center. Based on the performance I'm seeing now with the XPro 2 and with an XT-2, that corner vignetting adjustment is probably not an issue until you get to really high ISO.
This lens was superbly sharp, and had that Fuji look. (All my large format lenses are Fuji lenses... they are superbly sharp and give a dimensional look to images that I don't get with other lenses. Fuji's X series lenses continue the tradition.) Thinking I may buy one of these now for my XT-1... Fuji's zooms focus closer at their longest focal length than their equivalent prime. I'm shooting baby pix, and that matters now.

EdinNJI think you are right about the vignetting issue being corrected. I have been shooting with this lens for several months with my X-T20 and have not had a problem. This is a great lens at this price and much nicer than your typical "kit" lens. In fact, it seems a little wrong to even describe it as a kit lens even though they have the more expensive (and heavier) constant 2.8 zoom of about the same length.
