Fujinon XF 16-80mm f/4.0 R OIS WR Zoom Lens Review for Fujifilm X-Series Cameras

I’m a big fan of zoom lenses. For my photography and budget, they provide great value and versatility, and modern zoom lenses sacrifice little, if any, image quality compared to prime lenses. I’m an especially big fan of zoom lenses that cover enough of a focal length range to potentially be the one lens to rule them all.

In addition to crafting YouTube videos about creating more interesting photos, I teach photography at Highline College in Seattle, Washington. I got my first camera in 1979, soooo, I’ve been on the journey to more interesting photos for over 40 years (yikes!) I enjoy helping people (re)discover their creativity and expression through photography. ***** PHOTOGRAPHY GEAR ***** Fujifilm X-T4 - https://bhpho.to/3fD7tmp Fujifilm X-T3 - https://bhpho.to/3fy6JPu Fujinon XF 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 - https://bhpho.to/3fy6JPu Fujinon XF 16-80mm f/4.0 - https://bhpho.to/3lvQk1I Fujinon XF 16-55mm f/2.8 - https://bhpho.to/3fTWhlB Fujinon XF 10-24mm f/4.0 - https://bhpho.to/2Vso7hE Fujinon XF 50-140mm f/2.8 - https://bhpho.to/3xsGuA7 Fujinon XF 70-300mm f/4.0-5.6 - https://bhpho.to/3AcCRzS Viltrox 23mm f/1.4 - https://bhpho.to/2VlyeF6 Fujinon XF 35mm f/1.4 - https://bhpho.to/3jpplSU Fujinon XF 50mm f/2.0 - https://bhpho.to/3jsmWXp Fujinon XF 2TC (2x teleconverter) - https://bhpho.to/3fxnudh Fujinon VG-XT3 (battery grip) - https://bhpho.to/3AfrOG5 Vello Extension Tubes (10mm + 16mm) - https://bhpho.to/3irgBMP ***** VIDEO GEAR ***** Fujifilm X-T3 - https://bhpho.to/3fy6JPu Fujinon XF 16-55mm f/2.8 - https://bhpho.to/3fTWhlB Ecamm Live - https://www.ecamm.com/mac/ecammlive/?...
