The Fujifilm XF16mmF1.4 R WR is a premium wide-angle prime lens designed for Fujifilm’s X-series mirrorless cameras. With a 16mm focal length (equivalent to 24mm in full-frame terms), this lens offers an expansive field of view, making it an excellent choice for landscape, architecture, and street photography. Its fast f/1.4 aperture provides exceptional low-light performance and beautiful background blur (bokeh), making it suitable for environmental portraits and astrophotography. The optical design includes 13 elements in 11 groups, featuring two aspherical and two extra-low dispersion elements to minimize distortion and chromatic aberrations. Additionally, Nano-GI (Gradient Index) coating reduces flare and ghosting, ensuring high contrast and color accuracy even in challenging lighting conditions.
Built for durability, the XF16mmF1.4 R WR has a rugged, weather-sealed (WR) construction, allowing it to withstand dust, moisture, and temperatures as low as -10°C (14°F). This makes it an excellent choice for outdoor photographers who shoot in harsh conditions. The manual focus clutch mechanism enables quick switching between autofocus and manual focus modes, while the minimum focusing distance of just 15cm (5.9 inches) allows for stunning close-up shots with dramatic perspectives. Weighing around 375g (0.83 lbs), the lens remains lightweight and portable without compromising on optical quality. Combined with Fujifilm’s renowned color science, this lens delivers sharp, high-resolution images with rich colors and excellent contrast, making it a favorite among both professionals and enthusiasts.
