Fujifilm XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS

Fujifilm's versatile standard zoom for the X-mount system — covering a 27–84mm full-frame equivalent range with a maximum aperture of f/2.8 at the wide end and built-in optical image stabilisation. A superb kit zoom that holds its own against much more expensive options, often bundled with X-T bodies.
