Fujifilm Fujinon XF16-50mm F2.8 R LM WR II Lens with Linear Motor System and Optical Body (Black)

The Fujifilm Fujinon XF16-50mm F2.8 R LM WR II Lens in Black brings resolving power for high-resolution imaging sensors and is the perfect hybrid lens for photographers and videographers. Packing immense creative potential into an updated, lightweight 0.90 lbs design, XF16-50mm F2.8 II is about 37 percent smaller than its predecessor, thanks to refinements to its optical design. Its fast, constant F2.8 aperture excels in low-light conditions, while the super extra-low dispersion (ED), aspherical lens elements, and 11-blade iris combine to deliver cinematic shallow depth-of-field for both photos and video alike. A near-silent linear AF motor, smooth aperture control option, and weather resistance round out the compelling reasons that make this the perfect lens to start any creative adventure.

The constant F2.8 aperture enhances low-light capabilities and the 40.2-megapixel resolving power eliminates any perceived downsides of zoom lens ownership, making it a true variable prime - a lens that offers the flexibility of a zoom with the optical quality of a prime.
Your New Constant Companion
Advancements in optical design mean the Fujinon XF16-50mm F2.8 R LM WR II lens is approximately 37 percent lighter than the XF16-50mm F2.8 R LM WR lens it replaces, without any compromise in build or optical quality.

A True Video Hybrid
The Fujinon XF16-50mm F2.8 R LM WR II lens has special features up its sleeve, making it a perfect choice for moviemaking and stills. Its weight, coverage, and optical performance all serve as benefits - joined by a new, smooth aperture control option. Accessed via a switch on the lens barrel, the aperture ring becomes de-clicked, and adjustments can be made smoothly outside of standard 1/3 stop increments, allowing for precise adjustment when recording video. The addition of the extra-low dispersion (ED) element and the ultra-precise aspherical lens element together with the 11-blade iris deliver smoother, more rounded bokeh with outstanding subject separation for a cinematic look in both stills and video.
Precision to Rely On
The Fujinon XF16-50mm F2.8 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 XF16-50mm F2.8 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. Whatever is being created, image makers can turn their attention to the moment, safe in the knowledge that the XF16-50mm F2.8 R LM WR II lens will perform exactly as expected.
