Fujifilm chooses the CES 2015 to officially present the new zoom Fujinon XF16-55mm F2.8 R LM WR, widely expected because this long in the roadmap Fujifilm promises and also because, according to the specifications, to be the most versatile, high-performance standard zoom in optical X-mount kit.
Equivalent to 24-84mm in 35mm format, has many points of interest, starting with the opening constant f / 2.8. It is weather resistant, and perfectly complements the camera body X-T1, and its construction involves several innovative elements. It consists of 17 elements in 12 groups, including 3 aspherical lenses and 3 low-dispersion ED to reduce lateral chromatic aberration (wide angle) and axial (tele), and uses the cover Nano-GI (Gradient Index), recently developed, to reduce ghost and flare.
The system of internal focus is driven by two linear motors, which according to Fujifilm ensure, in the presence of the camera body with Phase Detection AF, mesas focus in just 0.06 seconds in absolute silence.
When combined with camera bodies with technology LMO (Lens Modulation Optimiser), which reduces the loss of sharpness caused by diffraction at small apertures, high sharpness from edge to edge should be ensured at any aperture. By the way, the diaphragm consists of rounded nine-blade should ultimately ensure a soft blur.
The Fujinon XF16-55mmF2.8 R LM WR will be on sale by the end of February 2015 at the suggested retail price of $1,199.9.
