Having worked with 18-55 kit lenses from Nikon, Canon, Sony and Fujifilm, I rate this lens the best for a number of reasons. Its quality of construction and great damping of rings for just the right resistance and responsiveness immediately impressed me. It's a half-stop faster than the usual f/3.5 wide open, and a full stop faster f/4 at 55mm. Its sharpness rivals 35mm and 50mm prime lenses I've had from Nikon. For an APS-C lens it has pleasant enough, though not great bokeh (slight "onion" effect). The only discouraging thing about this lens is the high cost when purchased separately (still $699 retail). After a few hundred photos on my X-E2S I'm still pleasantly surprised at its results at all focal lengths and apertures. With this lens, I have no need to invest in primes.

I received the lens in great condition, packed with care, but when I unwrapped it I found that the serial number had been scratched at to the point of being illegible. This is the only sign of wear/damage on the lens, which leads me to believe it was an intentional alteration done by a previous owner. Kind of sketchy, and now I can’t resell the lens through any reputable store. This is my only issue though

Fujifilm 18-55mm 2.8-4 is a very nice kit lens that is much better than other kit lenses of the same focal length that I've used. It's solidly built and from the photos I took of my wife, son and granddaughter they came out sharp with no distortion in the edges like my 16-50mm lens has. It fairly light compared to my 18-135mm lens so it is good as a walking around lens which I intend to take with me at my neice's wedding this coming May so I can take my own pictures. I'm happy I bought this lens.

This lens is very well made and produces excellent images. On a Fuji X-S10 it makes a compact package, light and comfortable to handle. I only wish it were a little longer, but I knew its focal length when I bought it, and I'm very happy with it. It stays on my camera almost full time. For the price and focal range, it's clearly one of the best places to start in the Fuji system, and it has made me eager to get more Fujinon glass.

This is a better-than-expected zoom lens and I might give it five stars except that I don't really like zooms. Have always preferred to work with a combination of 21mm and 85mm lenses, skipping the "normal" focal lengths in between, but sometimes you have to bow to reality (at birthday parties, graduations, etc.) where friends and family just want normal. I use the 18-55mm on a Fuji X-e3 and must admit that the image-stabilization, which Fuji's fixed-length lenses lack, can come in handy. Autofocus is quick and accurate. Feels a bit heavy on that small camera body but no more so than the fastest prime lenses in the lineup.
