The FUJIFILM XF 16-50mm f/2.8-4.8 R LM WR is a versatile, next-generation standard zoom lens engineered for APS-C-format FUJIFILM X-mount mirrorless cameras. Covering an essential 24-76mm full-frame equivalent focal length, this optic bridges sweeping wide-angle perspectives and natural portrait framing in a sleek, lightweight profile. Designed as a versatile workhorse for everyday street photography, travel documentation, environmental portraiture, and run-and-gun video production, its bright f/2.8 maximum aperture at the wide end allows for confident shooting in lower light while rendering soft, flattering background bokeh.

A hallmark of this updated design is its internal zooming mechanism, which keeps the overall barrel length completely fixed across the entire zoom range. This architecture preserves balanced handling on compact camera bodies (such as the X-T50 and X-T series), improves balance when mounted on gimbals, and reduces the ingress of dust and moisture. The sophisticated optical layout incorporates three Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) elements and three aspherical elements to suppress chromatic aberrations, color fringing, and spherical distortion, delivering corner-to-corner sharpness and high resolving power. Autofocus is driven by a high-speed Linear Motor (LM) that ensures swift, accurate, and near-silent focus tracking fully compatible with FUJIFILM’s advanced subject-detection AF modes. Finished with an independent physical aperture ring, robust weather-resistant seals, and a close minimum focusing distance of 9.45 inches, this lens delivers modern, dependable performance in an agile form factor.

CONDITION DIAGNOSTICS & PHYSICAL NOTES

Included Components: COMPLETE STANDARD ZOOM OUTFIT. Supplied with the FUJIFILM XF 16-50mm f/2.8-4.8 R LM WR lens, genuine FUJIFILM front snap-on lens cap, genuine FUJIFILM rear X-mount lens cap, and dedicated FUJIFILM bayonet lens hood. (Camera bodies and protective screw-in filters sold separately).

Exterior & Barrel Status: EXCELLENT CONDITION. The matte black finish, metal bayonet mount, ribbed zoom ring, focus ring, and physical aperture ring show minimal to no signs of handling, surface scuffs, or cosmetic wear. All engraved focal length designations, aperture markings, and FUJIFILM badging remain crisp, clean, and fully legible.

Optical Status: EXCELLENT CONDITION. Both front and rear optical glass surfaces are pristine, clear, and completely free of scratches, scuffs, cleaning marks, haze, fungus, or element separation. Multi-layer anti-reflective coatings remain intact with uniform, factory-grade reflection control across the glass.

Mechanical & Electronic Status: FULLY FUNCTIONAL. The internal Linear Motor autofocus system acquires focus rapidly, accurately, and silently; subject detection and Eye/Face tracking function smoothly; the internal zoom mechanism glides cleanly with zero barrel extension; the manual aperture ring rotates with crisp, positive detents; the 9-blade rounded diaphragm stops down cleanly without sticking or oil residue; electronic gold-plated mount contacts communicate Exif data reliably with host FUJIFILM X-series bodies with zero error codes.

KEY FEATURES & PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS

Versatile 24-76mm Equivalent Focal Range: Seamlessly covers wide landscapes, architectural scenes, documentary snapshots, and classic portraiture.

Internal Zoom Architecture: Keeps the lens barrel at a constant, fixed length throughout the entire zoom range for balanced handling and enhanced dust protection.

High-Speed Linear Motor (LM) AF: Delivers fast, quiet, and precise focusing performance optimized for high-frame-rate stills and smooth, noise-free 4K video recording.

Advanced Optical Design: Features 3 aspherical and 3 extra-low dispersion (ED) elements to counteract distortion, field curvature, and chromatic aberrations for edge-to-edge clarity.

Weather-Resistant (WR) Construction: Comprehensive weather sealing throughout the barrel provides protection against dust, dirt, and moisture during challenging outdoor shoots.

Physical Aperture Ring (R): Dedicated on-barrel aperture control ring allows for direct, tactile adjustment of f-stops.

Close-Focusing Versatility: Minimum focusing distance of 9.45 inches (24 cm) allows for dynamic, detailed close-up compositions with pleasing background separation.
