    18-55mm gets my vote, it was my travel companion with X-T3 6 months ago in Catalonia. I was on a receiving side with that trip; my sons took me there as a birthday gift, 😻.

    I just recently bought xt3 with this lens, and I have 0 regrets. I love it! f4 does not bother me at all. I know that I wouldn't use it in lowlight that often. But dang, that manual focus ring is top-notch. I moved over from Nikon, and the manual focus ring blew me away! All thanks to you!

    What a lovely relationship you have with your sweet mother. Photography was great. But I don’t care I am now very hungry! Took my 10-24 with my 16-80 on a recent trip both were fantastic. Little distortion and super sharp.
    Weather was poor and relied on the 16-80 superb 6 stop O.I.S. and I was shooting at sub 1/30 sec a lot of the time and it was super and I am rubbish at controlling my camera shake. The 16-80 or at least my copy is very sharp wide open so I don’t understand some comments about this lens being unsharp. Maybe they vary in manufacture because they are not made in Japan. Love to hear you do a long term review of this one. Great as always thank you.

    I always love your videos Omar! I used to own the 10-24mm and just did not end up using it often enough, so I traded it for a 16mm f1.4. The lens I use most often is the 16-80 f4, second is the 27mm f2.8. 8:44 pm.

    I ended up selling the 10-24 because it is not weather resistant and I do a lot of outdoors work in wet environments. The 16mm f/1.4 is a great lens with WR and it's plenty wide 98% of the time. I agree your Mom has RUclips charisma!

    Do you mainly shoot in default Provia mode? The colors of the food are amazing. Another great video.

  • @whfowle
    @whfowle Год назад

    For circumstances like a major city, a wide angle and normal zoom lens combo makes sense. However, when travel is going to be in wide open spaces, a telephoto makes more sense. I recently made several train trips through the mountains of Colorado where I got a lot of use from a 24-240 lens and a camera that had IBIS. I was shooting scenes that were hundreds if not thousands of feet away and on a train that was not smooth riding. The IBIS worked great and the reach of the 24-240 was near perfect for that trip.

  • @ferdiyansurya

    The 16-55 will be my go to travel lens period. I have an x70 if want to go light during travels.

    • @WS-bk7uu
      @WS-bk7uu 5 лет назад

      Love the 16-55 but have been tempted to swap it for the 10-24 and 18-55. It's just such a beast in weight and size.

  • @TawaraboshiGenba
    @TawaraboshiGenba 5 лет назад +1

    Some things are better at 10 mm, others at 18 mm, and yet others at 23, 35 or 55.
    That's why my most basic travel kit is either the 18-55 + 55-200 when I don't need wide angle (general travel + landscape with mid-distance to far away subjects), or the 10-24 + 18-55 when I know I'll need mostly wide angle with some mid tele (street or landscape with close-up subjects). If I wanna have it all, I'll add the 55-200 to the mix, and even with those 3 lenses, everything still fits into a small bag, including the X-T20.
    The 18-55 + 55-200 are usually enough for all my travel needs (landscapes at 18, 23, 35, 55, 200, with the ocassional wildlife at 200), but I'm glad I also had the 10-24 the other day when I was in the middle of a volcanic "malpaís" with big mountains and narrow ravines (10, 12, 14, anything above that was undoable, even with panoramas).
    The downisde is that none of that is WR. I might replace the 18-55 + 55-200 with the 18-135 and add a fast prime (for night photography) to get the ultimate (WR) travel kit: X-T3 + 10-24 + 18-135 + possibly the 23mmF2 for low light.

    • @TheBanjoShowOfficial
      @TheBanjoShowOfficial 2 года назад

      My go to is 18-55 and 50-230, those extra 30mm on the non-XF zoom lens are worth it to me, and it is waaay cheaper than the XF lens. It definitely feels cheaper in quality but as long as you take care of it, there's no reason to not love it. I've taken so many shots with that lens and they all come out phenomenal despite being a cheap lens.

  • @markhantla7915
    @markhantla7915 4 года назад +1

    For travel, I’ve been curious to try a wide prime with super zoom tele, so in my case, the 16mm 1.4 paired with the XC 50-230. Skip the middle range and go right to the extremes!

    Yay, so glad you and your mother had such a great trip together. Who cares about cameras when you have memories like that.
    Anyway, back on topic. Recently got my first serious fuji, a X-H2 and due to the 40MP they dont recommend the 10-24.. but the 8-16 which now looks too wide, too heavy, and too expensive for occasional use.. and yes i got the kit lens 16-80 which is not recommended but sold as part of the kit.. I think I'll stick with it until a newer 10-24 is released.. but my x-e1 needs a zoom.. too and the 16-80 is too big for it

    What do you recommend to shoot RUclips videos? Makeup tutorials and clothing hauls (full body)? I was thinking the 10-24 or 16-55 . But I’m probably wrong on both lol. I need a fast autofocus. Thanks!

  • @nerwin
    @nerwin 5 лет назад +2

    I guess it depends on your style. I love the wide angle look and you work harder to get good shots with it. Sometimes it doesn't work and you'd rather have something longer like a 35mm or 50mm or even the 18-55 for the sake of keeping it simple. There is no right and there is no wrong...as they say, different strokes for different folks.

    Right on the money Omar! I just returned from the Greek Isle, taking only my X-T3 with the XF 18-55. I may have missed a couple shots, but so what?! I always travel light and am looking forward to your video on the XF 16-80.

  • @Krekkertje
    @Krekkertje 5 лет назад

    I recently upgraded my 18-55 to the 16-80. Main reasons were the bigger zoom range on both ends and the weather sealing. I'm currently on a trip in Ireland and I've only brought that lens and the 23 1.4. During the day I don't even carry a camera bag. I just throw my X-T2 around my shoulder with the zoom and I shoot everything with it. The image stabilization is a huge advantage. I was able to shoot a somewhat long exposure shot of a waterfall handheld and still get the picture sharp where it needed to be sharp. At night though, it's too slow, but that's where the 23 1.4 comes in.

    Thanks for posting this. I recently traded in my Canon gear to try the Fujifilm X-T100. Now that I'm used to the Fujifilm mirrorless system I'm really enjoying it, and will likely upgrade to the X-T20 within the year. The zoom lens that came with the X-T100 kit leaves much to be desired, and only been shooting with the 27mm pancake lens. I've been torn between the 18mm prime or the 18-55mm zoom, and this video helped me settle on the the 18-55mm.

    I love the XF27mm/f2.8 for a "walking around" prime. My last trip to visit my dad down in Florida, I packed it, the XF35mm/f2.0, and the XF18-55mm/f2.8-4.0 along with my XT-30, batteries, charger, memory cards, and a couple of lens pens. Everything packs into a small Pelican dry box, 9.5x7.5x4.25", which fits inside my carry-on.

    What about using the 16mm prime and the 18-55? The 16 is very sharp and can focus very close. I agree on the 18-55mm. Even though I have most of the other Fuji lenses I find this travels with me the most.

    Toured Athens, the Cyclades islands, and Crete in September. Although I took the 10 to 24, I used it only a couple of times. Most of my shots were with the 18 to 135 and the 16 to 50. I’ve taken the 18 to 135 on several trips now and feel it’s the best travel lens. I used an Xt-3 and XPro 2 on this trip.

    With 10mm you can shoot architecture, do some perspective correction in LR and crop out a beautiful upright 18mm equivalent. Nicer than the regular 18mm.

    The 16-55 has been nothing short of stellar for my last trip to Disneyland and Universal Studios. Perfect for almost every situation with the exception of a few shots where it wasn’t quite wide enough, I either backed up a bit more than usual or actually used the tilt screen to get that looooow shot. While I do miss the OIS for video it still captured some good shots. Looking forward to your vid on it!

    The 10-24 is must-have for traveling light for landscape, but yeah... it's too easy to get lulled into the 10mm more-is-better trap when the middle of the zoom range would be better.

    I have just been to Barcelona and I had my xt1 and the 16-80 with the 23f2. That 16-80 had enough reach with the 16mm end just right for this lens. Did I miss my 10-24 yep but as I did the tour bus the 80mm end came in handy to shoot the building's. I did not use 23f2 and it was great to have just one camera and one body and get on enjoying the trip with a small kit.
