Fujifilm XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 OIS 55mm

72.7 Score
18-55mm 22 Fujifilm X IS
Why we recommend this

A compact 310g standard zoom with a linear motor for fast autofocus and 4-stop optical stabilization, covering 18-55mm at f/2.8-4. Its three aspherical elements and one ED element deliver good sharpness for the price, though it lacks weather sealing. Best for landscape photographers or budget-conscious users needing a versatile travel zoom, but not for portrait work (scoring just 47.5/100).
