About November 2nd I purchased the Fuji X-Pro1 and the 35mm lens. The images produced by the Fuji product were superb even when compared to My Canon eos systems. I soon after purchased the 18 mm fixed and the 60mm fixed lens. Both were superb as well NOW to the 18mm - 55mm zoom.
When one has to change focal lengths rapidly and still get wonderfully sharp images this is the lens; This is the lens even if one does not have that kind of work to do; It is very well made and feels like quality through and through; It will last a lifetime

The Fujifilm Fujinon XF 18-55mm F2.8-4 R LM OIS ($599 list) is the first zoom lens introduced for the Fuji X-Pro1 and X-E1 cameras . The system launched with just three prime lenses, but Fujifilm has quickly worked to bolster it, and promises to follow with two more zooms-a 55-200mm and a 10-24mm-in...
Extremely sharp; Minimal distortion; Fast aperture; Optically stabilized.
Expensive
Fujifilm has done very well with this lens, making it more than ''just'' a kit lens, and perhaps justifying its comparatively hefty price tag. Given that the lens is available in a kit with Fuji X-mount camera bodies, this isn't necessarily a factor: but if you're a prime lens shooter looking for...
The Fujinon XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS may be the hottest reason to enter the Fuji system. It is amazingly sharp throughout the zoom and relevant aperture range. That is except for a high amount of field curvature at 18mm which make it necessary to stop down quite a bit in order to have an...
Gary Wolstenholme reviews the Fujifilm Fujinon XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS lens for Fuji X-series cameras which provides a field of view equivalent to a 27-84mm lens on a 35mm camera.
Excellent sharpness in the centre throughout the zoom range; Good build quality; Low distortion; Quick to focus; Effective optical stabiliser
Not as sharp towards the edges of the frame; CA levels a little high at 35mm
I got this lens with my Fuji X-E1 kit and I have not been disappointed. Past experience was primarily with Pentax DSLRs and SLRs for reference. It's very well made, not quite like a rock but definitely very sturdy. The plastic lens hood is perhaps the only disappointing part.
Build quality; Excellent OIS; decent aperture; Low CAs; Vignette and Distortions
Picture quality not quite up to the primes; auto focus is better with new firmware but still not as fast as other CSC rivals
Handling and features This standard zoom lens for Fuji X-series cameras provides a field of view equivalent to a 27-84mm lens on a 35mm camera and sports Fujifilm's new linear focusing motor and optical image stabilisation, which promises to allow sharp hand-held images to be taken at shutter speeds...
The 18-55mm f2.8 lens is the and closest lens to the 24-85mm full frame format that can be found for the Fujifilm X Pro1 camera. Size and weight are not a factor and this lens keeps the package to a reasonable size.
