XF 8-16mm f/2.8 R LM WR lens

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

The XF 8-16mm f/2.8 R LM WR is a fast ultra-wide angle zoom lens that has a constant maximum aperture of f/2.8 and is equivalent to 12-24mm in the 35mm format. It complements the other constant f/2.8 zoom lenses (XF 16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR and XF 50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR) to create a premium trio of lenses that covers the focal lengths equivalent from 12mm all the way to 213mm in the 35mm format. The lens’ outstanding edge-to-edge image-resolving performance and f/2.8 maximum aperture makes this product a perfect choice for landscape and architecture photography with an emphasized sense of perspective, interior photography at restaurants and hotels, as well as nightscape and astrophotography.

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.
