Best for
The X-T5 paired with Fuji's new kit-tier zoom - wider at the short end (16mm vs 18mm), brighter at the long end (f/4.8 vs f/5.6), weather-sealed, with fast silent LM linear-motor AF. A meaningful upgrade over the older 18-55 kit, now the default kit zoom in new X-T5 bundles.
Frequently asked questions
How does the new 16-50 kit compare to the old 18-55?
Wider (16mm vs 18mm), brighter at the long end (f/4.8 vs f/5.6), weather-sealed (the 18-55 is not), and with LM linear-motor AF (faster and quieter). The 18-55 is still optically excellent but the 16-50 is Fuji's current kit-tier standard.
Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
