Great intro, and great editing views! This is like a swan-song review, now it has been retired. I say retired rather than superseded as the replacement doesn't best it in all regards, and may not earn the same cachet level as this lens, also now considering the competition. You've reviewed this lens proud!
I actually own the DSLR equivalent of this lens the Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-F4 on my Nikon D5500. I have also seen this Fuji 18-55 F2.8-F4 for sale attached to a Fuji XT20
fuji has that other kit lens, the 16-80f4, which has WR and the marked aperture ring. The new 16-50f2.8 4.8 lens that they launched has WR and internal zoom. I guess you can't really have all 3 of your wishes together 😁
Yes it’s always a balancing act getting the features you want in one product 😅. I haven’t tried the 16-80mm but the new one looks good although it’s not f/4 anymore and you loose some of the top end zoom but you do gain a few mm on the wide side which is great ⚖️, am keen to try it.
@@olgadekell " Why not? " Hm? Aah ,that's what you like...; ok then, let me too contribute to this collection: it would also be nice if it stayed afloat mid-air if dropped 🤔🥰
What is your go to lens? 📸

Thanks for the feedback 🙏!
I'm from Brazil and I just bought this lens. I'm going to use it on my XT4 too! I got excited after watching your review :)
I loved your channel. 🤍
Oh thanks so much, let me know how you go with the lens! 😃
@olga, you have an error in the photo description at 0:26. It lists f / 2.0, which shouldn’t be possible with this lens.
Thanks for picking up this typo, it should say f/2.8.
Thinking about getting a Fuji XT4 with this lens, you got me pretty convinced
It’s been a great camera and lens combo 📸
Hi there
Great review what filters do you use with this lens
Thank you! Lately no filters at all but I used to use the Black Pro mist a bit. If I’m doing video then a variable ND also.
When I had the X-T4 this lens lived on the camera. Still one of the best lenses Fuji made.
Yes it’s such a versatile lens!
I use fuji 23mm 1.4 and fuji 35mm 1.4.. But the 18-55 stay in my heart ❤
That’s great, thanks for sharing! Have you tried the new 33mm?

Oh that's great, how do you find the Sigma is it good?

Is it possible to use it at 55mm/2.8 optimally please?
no, at 55 its minimum is f/4
Great lens at any price!
Yes it’s a great lens! 📸
Are you sure you would like to continue holding on to your last wish of having the aperture ring marked on a lens with a variable aperture?
-;;;
Why not?

@@olgadekell you've been asking for it 😙
Good chat
😁
Great review...love your style. You are a very attractive lady which doesn't hurt at all...!
Thank you 🙏
I have this lens, I love it. A bit soft at 55mm for my taste, but it's not a problem.
Yes it’s a great all round kit lens.
