Adding item to the basket... Go super wide with this incredible wide-angle zoom lens
The XF8-16mmF2.8 lens delivers excellent sharpness from corner to corner and at all focal lengths and apertures. Special aspherical and extra low dispersion elements are used in its construction to remove distortion and fringing, for clean, richly detailed images.
As the widest-angle lens in the X Series range, the XF8-16mmF2.8 offers amazing opportunities for wide-angle photography. Perfect for expansive landscapes or cramped interiors. The lens’s closest focus distance is 0.25m, and foreground details are emphasised by its extreme perspective.
The lens has a maximum aperture of F2.8 throughout its zoom, which is vital in several respects. Not only does the very wide aperture make images easier to keep sharp when hand-holding the lens, it also gathers much more light than smaller apertures, allowing you to add star-filled skies to your landscape compositions.
Whether shooting in a wet and windy wilderness, dry and dusty desert or freezing tundra, the XF8-16mmF2.8 R LM WR is designed to keep going as long as you do. This is thanks to 11 separate weather seals around the body, a metal barrel and a fluorine coating on the front element.
