Fuji 16-55 mm f 2.8 lens SOLD

I bought this lens last year about this time to do an informal wedding that didn't happen. I have used it for landscapes and it certainly does well in that area. But I do very few landscapes and while this is an exceptional lens I just don't use it often enough to justify keeping it. It is a notable lens for portraits too but except for birds I don't normally do portraits either.

This lens is very sharp, wonderful color and creamy bokeh. The focus is reliable and fast. With the right camera settings the background can be blurred out. It would be a great lens for family portraits, children, grandchildren and newborns.

This lens is in excellent condition all around. I always use a hood with my lenses so the hood does show signs of use. It comes with front and back caps, hood and soft wrap. I bought it from B&H new. Currently it sells for 1199.00.

I'm asking 700.00 plus shipping. Or trade for the latest Canon tele converter( 1.4) and cash.

So wish I had an extra $700 right now. Good luck with your sale. It should go fast at that price.

FYI - if you don't get any takers here, I sold my "like new" copy to MPB. They paid $620 and paid for me to ship it to them. Very smooth transaction.

Yeah I just checked and they are selling for $849. I bought mine "like new" from mpb last year and can't remember what I paid for it but sure it was somewhere in the $850-$900 range

Thanks for the positive posts. I have it on Fuji Buy and Sell and FB Marketplace also. Probably the worst time to sell after the holidays but hey tax refunds should be happening soon. It's probably one of the best lens I have owned but then Fuji is pretty well known for that.

I just bought a new Fuji X-T3 with the 18-55 kit lens. Just learning to use it, and very pleased with it. Whoever buys this lens will be pleased, I'm sure!
