p.3 #1 · Do I have a bad copy of Fuji 18-55mm f2.8-4?
The images indeed look not ideal for me. But not sure if this is due to the camera or the lens. I could not be happier with my 18-55mm lens. But to echo a comment above, I'd rather go out to shoot more pictures to see if I like the lens or not. If not, just sell it and get another copy or another lens. Good luck.
