Default Fuji 16-55 F2.8

I just picked up this new zoom , so far I am very impressed. I did a little crop of the photo to give you an idea of the pseudo-macro ability. Up until now I have been happy just having ultra sharp prime lens but this zoom seems to be just as good

Beautiful pictures, but I have to ask... was the water really that vivid blue?

Very nice pictures!
My wife has the same lens.
She's also very happy with it.

The 18-55 f2.8 is my work horse lens. It's great!

I had the 18-55 and went to the 16-55, very fast fixed 2.8 and very sharp lens
From one end of the frame to the other

Saturation was set on plus 1, Velvia . The water does look amazing which is why I took these pictures to begin with

By the way this was taken with the Fuji XT -1 . Still a great camera even though the XT-2 is out now which is supposed to even be better with 4 k video. I haven't decided if I'm going to "upgrade" as I'm very happy with this XT-1
