I use the weather resistant 16-55mm f/2.8 and the weather resistant 50-140mm f/2.8 in my zoom wedding kit. I use the 56mm f/1.2, 23mm f/1.4, and 16mm f/1.4 in my prime wedding kit. If I am shooting still and video, I use the zoom kit for video and the prime kit for stills. If I am only shooting stills, I usually use the primes and keep the zoom kit for backup. If I am only shooting video, I use the zooms and keep the prime kit for backup.
it's a great all round lens. It is good at every focal length, though quality drops off mostly at 55mm.... still it is very good with clean, sharp images with impact and freshness all the time. The only Fujifilm zoom I care to own.... the other being the very expensive wide-angle 2.8 zoom which I will get one day, hopefully.
This is what I've found, having only just switched to a X-T4 and 16-55 combo this weekend (!). I left the other lenses at home (giving me a light sling bag once the combo is in my hand). And, frankly this heavy combo is every bit as carryable in my hand as the more fiddly X-T30 (with its smaller grip and risk of touching buttons everywhere). Yes, I will need to carry other lenses for some jobs. But the 16-55mm already feels like a sturdy and trusted friend compared to the haphazard 18-55mm, as my new main zoom.
I shoot XT3 and have only the 16-55 and the 50-140 and the 16-55 stays on my camera 98% of the time unless I need that extra reach. I wish I had an XT4 to have for the IBIS but honestly with a Small rig cage and neck strap I can get pretty steady footage to where it doesn't look fake. And then on my gimbal it works great for walking. I do LOVE the 10-24 F4 IS for how wide you can get but I just don't feel like adding another lens to my kit right now.
With the XT4 the IBIS helps a lot indeed! But yes if you have a proper cage then that’s great too. Sometimes completely stable footage is not what you want so it depends on your needs. I used to own the 10-24 but I parted ways with it as I was not using it as much. It was for very specific situations.
@@ThierryGibralta Yeah when I first got into shooting some video I was so obsessed with having perfectly smooth footage. Now I have watch so many videos on film making and it's quite the opposite. Sure there is a time and place for a more static shot but shots that have a bit of a motion to them are much more engaging. Handheld or with a gimbal.
The 16mm1.4 is a great lens, I believe the best lens of Fujifilm but the 16-55mm gives you (in my opinion) the most versatility if you want to do both videos and photos without the need of changing hour lens
Also the wide angle of the 16-55 is used for specific kind of shots, which does not always work in video, depending on what you want to capture. You have more flexibility with the 16-55 while still having great image quality.
@@ThierryGibralta thank You. I shoot mostly Wedding videos and I am still afraid that 16-55 will be too dark :( i have sigma 18-35, but its so biiiig and i cant use that for photo
@@dominikradlak8163 I think the 16-55 can do the job but if you require really low light condition you might want to go with the combo 16mm1.4 + 56mmf1.2/50mmf1.0 Beware of the autofocus issues on the 56mmf1.2 though... you might miss a lot of shots because of it. That’s why I believe that the 16-55 is a good middle ground for hybrid The 56mm is not usable for videos. If you need to do both I don’t think it is a good solution
@@dominikradlak8163 I have the 18-35 too, but I'm can use it for photos. AF works good for normal portraits via Fringer adapter. f/2.8 can be quite dark for APS-C... I wish Fuji would make a new lens, maybe 16-35 f/2.

great images thierry! this lens is a beast! i love my copy
Thanks a lot. The scenery and the lens made it easy to capture some nice moments! Thanks for watching!
Great review, very useful. Thank you!
Happy that it could help!
Great tips! I'm planning to use XT4 and your videos solid tips with 16-55mm, for bokeh I might saving for F1-1.4 series
Happy that you enjoyed the video!
I also have a review of the xf35mmf1.4 that you might enjoy if you are looking into the 1.4 series ;)
@@ThierryGibralta Great~! I'll have a look to your video' cheers
Cheers man!

Have you considered the 50-140? I haven’t managed to try that one yet
@@ThierryGibralta don't think I am interested... but I would love the 8-16 fixed f/2.8 pro glass
Yooow man someday will go there ,btw i love pict of temple
Gogogo! A great place to be!
Thanks man and thanks for watching!
If you add the price and weight of the 16/2.8, 23/2.0, 35/2.0 and 50/2.0, the 16-55 is a cheap and lightweight alternative.

Totally agree. Intent is the key depending on what type of shot you want to do
Nice.
Thank you
What is your camera and lens setup for your videos ?
I use the 1655mmf2.8 with the XT4 for my videos
@@ThierryGibralta great, your videos look very sharp. Thank you
@@bernardadjei no problem, thank you for watching
