An ultra-wide zoom characterized by a bright and advanced optical design, the Fujifilm – XF 8-16mm f/2.8 R LM WR Lens is a 12-24mm-equivalent lens featuring a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture for consistent performance throughout the zoom range. The optical layout comprises six extra-low dispersion elements, including three Super ED elements, which help to virtually eliminate chromatic aberrations and colour fringing for greater clarity and colour accuracy. Four aspherical elements are also used to suppress distortion, the curvature of field, and spherical aberrations for improved sharpness. Also, a Nano-GI coating helps to control ghosting and flare for enhanced contrast and colour fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions. Complementing the optics is a refined linear motor, which affords quick and quiet autofocus performance, and the lens body is weather-sealed in 11 distinct places to support working in trying environmental conditions.

The Fujifilm – XF 8-16mm f/2.8 R LM WR Lens is able to utilise the full capability of FUJIFILM’s X-TransTM CMOS Sensor to achieve superb sharpness even when the aperture is wide open. It faithfully captures the atmosphere of each scene, thanks to the outstanding image-resolving performance and fast f-stop. The lens barrel is lightweight yet robust while also being resistant to dust, moisture and low temperatures down to -10 degrees Celsius, making it extremely reliable for professional photographers.

With a total lineup of 31 lenses including the simultaneously announced XF200mmF2 R LM OIS WR and XF1.4X F2 TC WR, FUJINON XF lenses cover an impressive array of focal lengths, enabling shooting opportunities from far away to close-up.

 

Key Features of the Fujifilm – XF 8-16mm f/2.8 R LM WR Lens

  • Impressively wide zoom is designed for FUJIFILM X-mount mirrorless cameras and provides a 12-24mm equivalent focal length range.
  • Constant f/2.8 maximum aperture offers consistent performance throughout the zoom range and excels when working in difficult lighting conditions.
  • Six extra-low dispersion elements, including three Super ED elements, are used to greatly reduce colour fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to produce high clarity and colour fidelity throughout the zoom range.
  • Four aspherical elements control distortion, the curvature of field, and spherical aberrations, which helps to improve sharpness and realize more accurate rendering.
  • Nano-GI (Gradient Index) coating has been applied to lens elements and alters the refractive index between the glass and air in order to better suppress lens flare and ghosting for diagonal incident light.
  • Linear motor autofocus system delivers smooth, near-silent performance that is especially beneficial to video applications and when working in noise-sensitive areas.
  • The lens body incorporates extensive weather sealing to protect against dust and moisture, and to enable worry-free use in inclement conditions and freezing temperatures as low as 14°F.

Ultra-wide angle zoom with a constant maximum aperture of f/2.8

In order to provide an ultra-wide-angle zoom of 8-16mm (equivalent to 12-24mm in 35mm format) at a constant maximum aperture of f/2.8, this lens uses an impressive 20 elements in 13 groups

This includes four aspherical lens elements to control distortion and spherical aberration and six ED lens elements, including three super ED elements, to control lateral chromatic aberration. This design results in advanced image-resolving performance across the zoom range while maintaining a constant maximum aperture of f/2.8

Advanced construction that withstands various shooting conditions

The barrel is sealed at 11 places to make the lens resistant to dust, moisture, and low temperatures down to -10 degrees Celsius. The front lens element is coated with fluorine to repel water and dirt, adding extra durability so that the lens can be used outdoors with peace of mind

Field curvature correction mechanism

In order to correct field curvature, typically found with ultra-wide-angle lenses, this lens features a correction element which adjusts according to the position of the zoom in order to achieve edge-to-edge sharpness

Double Nano-GI coating

The rear surface of the two front lens elements is treated with Nano-GI coating to eliminate ghosting and flare, caused by oblique light, creating clear images

Accessories

Ultra-wide angle lenses have large front element protrusion and cannot be fitted with a regular lens cap. The FLCP-8-16 front lens cap is specifically designed for this lens and will be released on the market at the same time as the lens

Silent and fast autofocus

The lens uses linear motors for autofocus to achieve quiet and ultra-fast AF
