    This lense was one of the reasons why i got my XT4 last year and im really happy with it. I might buy one with another zoom range, but so far im really happy

    I got one of these with my X-E2 back around 2014. Since then I've switched cameras to the X-T30 and then X-T3 but the lens hasn't gone anywhere. Last week I brought it on a week long vacation and although I brought a couple of other lenses, I never ended up reaching for them. Didn't need them!

    Credible post, convincing arguments, humorous “apple orange /pineapple” bit and lens stored without front or rear caps on a shelf. You do use lens caps, don’t you?😊

    The strategy of the "cripple hammer" is behind the marketing of the kit lens. They force you to upgrade to other lens. Not Fuji of course.

    Bang on. This is a brilliant lens and, in fact, i try not to call it a 'kit' lens as that puts it in the same bracket as the awful Canikon 18-55s. The Fuji is in a different league to those and never lets me down. Subscribed!

    Very funny video 😂. I've just bought the X-E2s (yes in 2023!) as want to move back to Fuji away from my Sony system. I got the 18-55mm but sent it back as I wasn't sure it was for me compared to the Sony's kit lens 28-70 which I'd bought recently as a lighter alternative to my other heavy Sony lens. However, after reviewing the shots from the Fuji vs the Sony I was really surprised and opted to have the seller return it to me immediately, and sold I ended up selling the Sony. Sadly, I just can't lug the Sony gear around all the time anymore - it just drains my desire to shoot or 'freedom' for creativity, so it looks like I might be transitioning across to a Fuji as my everyday camera system and I've also now bought the 27mm pancake. I'll likely upgrade the camera itself at some point, these two lenses are likely to say in my system as long as I own the camera.

    Quick question. The ocean shots with the surfers. Why does it look so blocky? Does it have to do with the bitrate compression in youtube or is this raw footage (edited)?

    Great video! I was looking into this lens, and at the local store I went to, they had the 18-45, and I am sad that I didn't get this one. The power zoom of the 18-45 is meh, but I love how small the profile is. But I am upset that I didn't grab this one instead!

      Bear in mind this one is 400$ more than the 18-45. For 400$ u can get 2-3 really great used third party prime lenses.
