I was looking at a Fuji with a 50" size. I am 5' 2" 1/2. Would the 15 or 17 work best???

My wife is 5'4" so we bought the 17. It might depend on how long your legs are. I'd find a size 15 or 17 bike and sit on it to try it out. That is what we did.

Thank you for taking time to answer my question. I decided to purchase the Fujifilm XE2 with their kit 18-55 lens last July. I couldn't be happier with the product quality and the great photos this combo produces.

I have a Canon Rebel T4i. When I have the 18-55mm lense it is a pain to get in and out. Smaller lenses are easier. I would go with a rain sleeve if I was not going under water, like a OP/TECH USA Rainsleeve.

I would say get the 18-55 and use the $150 difference toward a 55-250 while you are starting out. You will probably want something longer than 135mm regardless, and depending on how far you go with your photography, there may come a point where none of the three lenses mentioned in this post is "good enough" anymore. ;)

The 85 has an even tighter angle of view than the 50. It's a great portrait lens, as in you can get a good head and shoulders shot and put the background nicely out of focus, but I suspect you want to get more in your pictures, not less. The lower the number of a lens's focal length, the wider angle of view it has. Didn't your camera come with an 18-55 zoom? If not, look for one on eBay. That's the normal "kit" lens for cameras with the Rebel's sensor size. You can find them for under $100 there. Make sure you get one with the "IS" designation. That means it has image stabilization which will help keep shots sharps during hand-held exposures. The 85 has an even tighter angle of view than the 50.

i have a 450, 20 inch. I've bought several from HD, these are much better, cleaner cut and so far have lasted longer.

To future amateurs with this question i would recommend the 17-50 over the 28-75 especially when your camera has a cropped sensor. It becomes a 28-80mm which makes it an appropriate wide angle to take landscape shots and portraits at 50mm(80mm equivalent). 28-75mm becomes more of a telephoto lens on a cropped dslr and i would only recommend getting it on a full frame (but then again if you can afford a full frame and use it professionally, you would probably go with the cannon 28-75L)

I got the 17" one and find it perfect for home and travel. I'm 5'8 if that helps you any with your purchase decision.

Well...since I'm of the "more is better" persuasion, my knee-jerk answer is the 22lb. That said, though, I'm 5' 8" & 150 and the 17.6 works just fine. Of course, I haven't actually tried the 22lb, so can't say whether it might really be better and worth a couple of bucks. Hope that helps!

Hi Monica, I'm guessing by 31" your talking inseam. I just happen to have the exact inseam, although I don't have a fuji I have a Felt Bike. My bike size is generally 18" or medium. The problem is all bikes aren't created equal and looking at the sizing chart for this bike ( http://www.fujibikes.com/archive ) You have to convert the stand over height from mm to inches. Looks like the medium (19") has a stand over height of 30.6". That would be my guess for what your looking for. When measuring for a bike always make sure you measure your inseam with shoes on. My wife has this exact female model. The women's model has a slight downward top tube compared to the men's. her inseam is about 28" and she has the 17" (S/M). When I stand over her bike it's a bit too small for my liking. Hope this helps you!!

Is 17.5 medium frame for peopple btw 5' to 5'10" If u going to pay over 300 find something alse is basic bike , better than Walmart bikes but not the best if you going to hit the trails or the mountain !

They are the same. So far as I know, Fuji makes two sizes of this kind of instant film, a mini size and a wide size. Get the wide size for this camera and you will be fine.

i chose the 54mm and it is larger than a bike store owner suggested, but it works for me. probably a 50mm or 52mm would be ideal if they have it. warning, any time you crash, you've got a good chance to mess up your handlebars, they're not very solid. cheap brakes, and take care of your wheels, they're easy to mess up too, can get out of true very easily in any crash/accident. i like my bike, it gets me where i want to go fast, but know that it is the cheapest option for a roadbike.

I would go with the 19mm... I've got both and the 30mm is a little bit too "long"... I use the 30mm for portraits and the 19mm for all yhe rest. :)

Does that lack of image stabilization in the 20 mm lens factor in against choosing it over the 14-45 lens? I think I'm all set to get the 20 mm lens after doing my research and reading these comments, but that was one area I was still questioning.

The 15-85 is specifically designed for crop sensors; the 17-40 can be used on both crop and full frame, but using it on crop sort of wastes where it really shines as an ultra-wide on full frame. I've used both on a crop sensor DSLR, and I vastly prefer the 15-85's usefulness, especially the IS and range. It is as sharp as any midrange L zoom on crop sensor.

You have to know if 50mm equivalent works for you. Also look at 17 and 14mm from Olympus and Panasonic if you need wider field of view. I have the lens you ask about and it's great but focal length you shoot at is first priority. Look at previous pics and see. Also using Amazon I've bought new and used like-new with equal good results but cost a lot less!!!
