im honestly so fed up with this XC 15-45mm kit lens that came with my X-S20. i blew my whole savings on the body because i wanted that IBIS for my trip to Chicago next month but now im stuck with this cheap piece of plastic. the power zoom is literally the worst thing ever it keeps resetting every time the camera sleeps and i keep missing shots because of it. i just want something sharp that doesnt feel like a total toy but i literally only have maybe 250 or 300 bucks left tops.
im looking for:
- something fast for street stuff
- actually decent build quality
- under 300 dollars
are there any decent primes or maybe some third party glass like Viltrox or TTArtisan that actually work well with the AF on this thing?...

The 15-45 is literally so annoying, i totally get it! Tbh it feels like a toy. Check these out:
- Viltrox 23mm f/1.4 AF XF is super bright and built like a tank.
- TTArtisan 27mm f/2.8 AF Fuji X is a tiny pancake lens thats perfect for staying low key. Both have fantastic autofocus and way better build quality. Youll save tons of cash too!
