Got out at last to test the R72 on the 16-55f2.8. Settings are monochrome+red, f5.6 1" iso 1600 Happy With straight from camera but haven't looked to closely yet. Here's the shot without the R72

I recently spent a full day in near freezing rain with my then month old X-T1 and 16-55 f2.8. Weather proofing is excellent and for what your proposing I'd highly recommend the T1 and a WR lens for this reason alone. The 16-55 is a lovely lens though on the heavy side but suites me as it is the equivalent of my go to 24-70 Nikon. I won't recommend a specific lens as that's your choice, just get it from weather sealed lineup.

If you have the Apple Traveler kit I discovered these plugs also fit. The Australian, EU and UK adaptors are fine but the US one doesn't quiet stay in the wall socket on my X100 and X-T1 chargers.

I'm on my way home after three weeks of travelling. That would definitely have been very handy.

Thanks missed that in the first line. The lens information still helps though.

Thanks that was exactly what I was looking for

I've used an R72 filter a lot on my X100 with good results. Just wondering what the X-T1 is like particularly with the longer wavelength 800-950nm filters?

I've had mine (X-T1 and lens) for a little over a week. Find it very quiet and smooth to operate. The only issue I've encountered is that the tripod foot sticks out a long way off the lens compared to a Nikon 70-200 and so it doesn't fit my bag as well unless I remove it.
