Best travel lens for the fujifilm x e5?
For travel on the X-E5, I'd start with one zoom. The Fujifilm XF 16-80mm f/4 R OIS WR is my pick. It covers about 24-120mm on full frame, which handles most travel shots, and it's weather sealed. If you want more reach, the Fujifilm XF 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR goes to about 202mm equivalent, but it's a bit more to carry.
For the small fast prime I'd recommend in what to pack, go with the Fujifilm XF 23mm f/2 R WR for evenings and food. Since the X-E5 has in-body stabilisation, you won't need to worry about lens stabilisation for handheld shots in dim interiors.
