Fujifilm XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR II

The updated version of Fujifilm's flagship standard zoom — the XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR II is significantly lighter than the original while adding optical image stabilisation for the first time. A constant f/2.8 aperture, Linear Motor autofocus, and full weather resistance make it the benchmark professional standard zoom for X-mount, covering a versatile 24-84mm equivalent range.

GearFrame's Take

The definitive standard zoom for X-mount — the II revision is around 35% lighter than the original while adding 5-stop OIS, retaining the constant f/2.8 aperture and weather resistance. A 24-84mm equivalent range covers the vast majority of everyday and professional shooting needs.
