FUJIFILM XF 16-80mm f/4 R OIS WR Reviews

First problem with a lens

By Nancy
Rated 3 out of 5
Date: 2026-03-25

I have had this lens for about 16 months. Gradually, over time, I noticed that it was getting gradually more difficult to attach to my camera, which is a Fuji film X-t5. I am not having any problems with other lenses. Now I am past the warranty and I don't want to try to use it any longer. I have not had this problem with any other Fuji film lens! Needless to say, this is the lens I count on the most. Has anyone else had this problem?

Good images but very poor ergonomics...

By Jean

This lens auto-focuses very quickly and accurately, and the images are nice and sharp throughout the range... however it's very unpleasant to use for 3 main reasons. First, the barrel extension tube has almost no friction, so the lens will drop down if the lens is pointed down, or will slide backwards if the lens is pointed up with the barrel extended. Second, the focus ring has so little friction that the slightest accidental touch will spoil the focus, when you're attempting to use the manual focus mode. Third, the aperture ring is so stiff that when you finally exert enough force to move it, it always overshoots the desired setting and will not stop in the regular clicks like it should. Finally, the hefty weigh and lack of an OIS switch put a few more nails in it's coffin, and within a month I came to strongly dislike it and decided to get rid of it.
