Fujifilm XF8-16mm f2.8 - A Practical Review

I've been interested in the Fuji XF8-16mm f2.8 since I first saw it on the Fuji road map, so I was excited to have the chance to borrow the lens and see how it performed as a possible replacement for the XF10-24mm f4, my current wide angle zoom. UPDATE: I've said in the video that the lens won't take filters, but it's been pointed out to me by a couple of people that this isn't true. Lee Filters make a filter holder which fits the 8-16mm and takes 150mm filters. http://www.leefilters.com/index.php/camera/system-sw150 NiSi also have one listed as upcoming on their Australia site https://nisifilters.com.au/product/nisi-s5-kit-150mm-filter-holder-with-cpl-for-fujifilm-xf-8-16mm-f-2-8-r-lm-wr-lens/ If you’d like to join me for a landscape photography workshop in Norway's Lofoten Islands or the Dolomites I’ll be co-leading groups there in 2019.
