The Fujifilm FUJINON XF 16mm F2.8 R Lens is a versatile optics ideal for various creative scenarios. It is built for the Fuji X-T30 and other X-series APS-C cameras. Whether taking wide-angle shots or close-ups the lens ensures clarity with its simple optical design of 10 elements in 8 groups. There are two aspherical glass lenses in the optical construction for combating spherical aberrations. The Super EBC coating on the glass elements enhances the light transmission to produce a clear saturated image. The stepping AF motor keeps the operating noise down during the autofocusing work. With the wide aperture of f2.8 the lens offers a shallow depth of field in close-up and portrait shots. The rounded 9-blade diaphragm adds to the visual quality by creating circular light iris in the blurred background. As the lens has weather-resistant seals it can be used in inclement conditions without any worries.
