Fantastic lens. Juicy, beautiful colors. So small and light. Uncomplicated, so no annoying wide-angle distortion at 15 mm when aligned horizontally. Ideal for traveling when you don't want to carry around a large wide-angle lens. I carry a Fuji XF55-200 lens on my XT-2 body for bird photography. With this XC-15-45 on my XE-2s I can shoot landscapes and people without changing lenses in the field. The only downside is the powerful zoom, which makes it difficult to get close to a specific composition. Even with slow power, it's difficult to stop accurately.
