Thanks Toni for your response.

The Fuji 16-80 f4 would be perfect if it wasn't that bad optically. That really sucks.

I'm a bit puzzled by the review and your comments, as well as others because my copy of the 16-80 f4.0 is that optically it's a very good lens. Yes wide open on the far ends, its not that great, back it down to 75mm at f5.6 is very sharp, and at the center throughout most of the range it's extremely sharp. I must have gotten a very good copy, because my lens is not the dog everybody is complaining about?

The truth be told there are very few good 24-105 FF or 16-80mm APS-C lenses with the exception of the new Canon 24-105 f4.0 RF lens. There are times I miss Canon full-frame, but and would love this kind of performance by the weight and expense of Canon tells me otherwise.
