Fujifilm’s affordable rectilinear lens gives you XF8-16mm performance for half the price but only at 8mm
f/3.5 isn’t much slower than f/2.8
Very compact
Comes with a nice hood
Only weights 215g/0.5lbs
Very compact
62mm filter thread on the front
Nice focus and aperture ring
Weather sealed
All metal design
No linear focus motor, but it is unneeded
You can shoot very close up, but not quite macro performance
Flare well controlled
Ghosting well controlled
Sun stars aren’t very good because they aren’t distinct
Well-controlled breathing for video work
Very smooth pleasing bokeh when shooting very close up
Sharp in the center wide open but not the corners
The corners get better by f/8
