FUJIFILM XF 16-50mm f/2.8-4.8 R LM WR Lens

FUJIFILM XF 16-50mm f/2.8-4.8 R LM WR Lens
Next-Generation Standard Zoom for Fujifilm X-Mount – 24-76mm Full-Frame Equivalent Range, Internal Zoom Mechanism (Fixed Barrel Length), Linear Motor (LM) High-Speed AF System, Advanced Optics (3 Aspherical & 3 ED Elements), Weather-Resistant (WR) Construction, Physical Aperture Ring with Lock, Rounded 9-Blade Diaphragm, Includes Front & Rear Caps plus Dedicated Lens Hood (Excellent Condition)

The FUJIFILM XF 16-50mm f/2.8-4.8 R LM WR is a versatile, high-resolution standard zoom lens engineered for Fujifilm X-series mirrorless cameras, providing a practical 24-76mm full-frame equivalent focal range. Designed as a modern, compact walk-around and travel optic, it balances sharp edge-to-edge optical resolution with an internal zooming mechanism that keeps the physical barrel length completely stationary throughout the zoom span—making it ideal for lightweight handheld setups, gimbal balancing, and travel kits.

The sophisticated optical formula consists of 11 elements in 9 groups, incorporating three aspherical elements and three Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) elements to suppress chromatic aberrations, distortion, and spherical fringing. Autofocus is driven by a high-speed Linear Motor (LM) system that delivers swift, whisper-quiet, and precise tracking for both high-resolution stills and video production, with a close minimum focusing distance of 9.45 inches (24 cm) for detailed close-ups. Built for outdoor reliability, the lens features a weather-resistant (WR) sealed barrel, a tactile manual aperture ring with an ‘A’ position lock, a 58mm front filter thread, and a rounded 9-blade diaphragm for smooth, natural background bokeh.

CONDITION DIAGNOSTICS & PHYSICAL NOTES

Included Components: Supplied with the FUJIFILM XF 16-50mm f/2.8-4.8 R LM WR lens, Fujifilm front snap-on lens cap, Fujifilm X-mount rear bayonet cap, and authentic Fujifilm dedicated lens hood.

Exterior & Physical Status: EXCELLENT CONDITION. The matte black composite and metal barrel, internal zoom ring, manual focus ring, aperture control ring, hood bayonet track, and weather-sealed X-mount flange show minimal signs of light handling.

Optical & Mechanical Status: FULLY FUNCTIONAL. Optical glass elements are clean and free of scratches, haze, or fungus; the internal zoom mechanism operates smoothly without barrel extension; the Linear Motor autofocus locks swiftly, silently, and accurately; the manual aperture ring clicks cleanly with a secure auto-lock; the 9-blade diaphragm actuates reliably across all f-stops.

KEY FEATURES & PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS

24-76mm Equivalent Focal Span: Versatile standard zoom range covering wide-angle landscapes, street scenes, documentary stills, and flattering portraits.

Internal Zooming Design: Maintains a constant physical barrel length while zooming, improving balance and gimbal stability.

Fast f/2.8 Starting Aperture: Allows for enhanced light gathering at the wide end and pleasing shallow depth-of-field separation.

High-Speed Linear Motor AF: Rapid, smooth, and near-silent autofocus drive optimized for fast-action stills and continuous video tracking.

Advanced Optical Design: 3 aspherical elements and 3 ED elements control optical aberrations and deliver crisp resolving power across modern 40MP X-Trans sensors.

Weather-Resistant (WR) Sealing: Gasket-sealed construction protects against dust, moisture, and low temperatures down to 14°F (-10°C).

Close-Up Capability: Minimum focusing distance of 9.45″ (24 cm) facilitates detailed near-macro style close-ups.

Circular 9-Blade Diaphragm: Creates smooth, rounded out-of-focus highlights and pleasing bokeh.
