The Fujifilm sale is in effect, so I have taken advantage of a $100 discount, and bought the XF16mm f/1.4 WR. http://www.fujifilm.com/products/dig..._xf16mmf14_r_w r/ For folks who might be interested, there are some good lens, camera body, and camera+lens combo deals available at vendors such as B&H, Adorama, and Amazon (third party vendors). -- Regards, Savageduck |

Gongrats to your new lense. 16mm is a nice and modest WA that will give you joy for a long time... Probably your life time considering your age! ;-PPP Unless you get feed up with the quirks of the X-Trans sensors... -- teleportation kills |

Are you planning to use it for landscapes, architecture etc.? -- Alfred Molon Olympus E-series DSLRs and micro 4/3 forum at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ http://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site |

Are you planning to use it for landscapes, architecture etc.? I am planning to use it for all you have mentioned, as well as some closer wide work, and wherever else it might fit in. It is a lens I have been considering for some time as everthing I have read about it, has nothing but praise. From what I have seen in results from Fujifilm shooters using it, performance is outstanding. The only con has been the price, so having the opportunity of a $100 was one I intended to take from the moment these sales were announced. I was also considering the XF10-24mm f/4 at the same price, but that is an older lens without weather sealing, and I have much of that range filled with primes such as the XF14mm f/2.8, the XF23mm f/2.0, and now the XF16mm f/1.4. Currently my most used lens is the XF23mm f/2.0. Now I will have to wait and see how the announce XF8-16mm f/2.8 performs when released in 2018. -- Regards, Savageduck |

That is my intention. BTW: I will be taking another trip to South Africa, this time in February. So I will be away with friends for my birthday.

I still have the Sigma 8-16 which I used with a Sony APS-C camera. Cool lens, most of the time I used it at the wide end. -- Alfred Molon Olympus E-series DSLRs and micro 4/3 forum at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ http://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site |

Unfortunately all FujiFilm has announced, is that the XF8-16mm is on their roadmap for release sometime in 2018. There are no details of the lens structure. http://www.fujifilm.com/news/n170907_03.html I still have the Sigma 8-16 which I used with a Sony APS-C camera.
