I'd suggest the Fuji XF10-24mm f/4 OIS lens for your landscape needs Hadron.
I just ordered one today for similar requirements, I've owned one before and have so enjoyed it's quality and versatility....!!
Here's a XF10-24mm image from my digital X library;

To me the greatest saxophone solo I have ever heard was Baker Street, so as I had some time to my self today I went to The Better Half for the Jazz gig and this is Al Nicholls and what a great player he was and is too. X-T3 + XF50mm f2.

Nice Dave, you been quiet lately
Thank you Keith, I have been helping my Mum who is very ill so when I get some me time is the only time I can pick up the camera.
I believe there is, not not sure by how much.Apologies, an afterthought, is there much barrel distortion at the wider end with the 10-24?
Completely understand that, I'm similar here with my partner, she's been very ill for the past year, I've also started a new job and I have 2 girls to look out for, one of whom has a disability. It can get on top of you for sure. But we need to mke some time for our own enjoyment

Some, but you expect it at 10mm. It's the landscape lens for me (I had the 16mm f1.4, which is outstanding, but it didn't get much use).
This was shot on the 10-24, attached to an X-T2.

There's quit a bit of stuff on my Flickr that may help, most of the landscapes are on the 10-24. https://www.flickr.com/photos/stevejelly/

”Excellent” set of candid street style Fujigraphs, nuff said.

I love the differences in opinion/preference in here regarding certain lenses. I mean that in the best possible way. I wouldn't ever consider the 10-24 because I'm not into landscape seriously enough, nor architecture or anything that requires a really wide field of view really. Yet I adore the 16mm 1.4, it's become that lens, the one that is most at home on my X-H1, the one I reach for no matter the mood. I love that we all have different perspectives and aims, we all have a plan, and use the gear best suited to it.
Bit of a mind junk there, but I'm genuine, I do love that we all use similar gear yet in completely different ways, love it all

So, here's a thing. I love the T3, it's just about the best camera I've ever had.
Do I:
1) Out the 2 T2 bodies for another T3?
2) Out the 2 T2 bodies, get an H1 plus another lens?
3) Out one T2 body and fund a new piece of glass?
My lens collection currently sits as: 35 f1.4, 60 f2.4, 90 f2 plus 10-24, 50-140, 100-400 and the 1.4TC.
Many of my landscapes are shot between 12 & 24mm, so the 16 f1.4 (which I regret moving on) is on my list, as is the 23 f1.4. However with my wife taking more of an interest in taking pictures, should I consider the 16-80 ?

Hi Steve,
Do you really need a 16-80mm when your 10-24mm covers most things? You've got a fantastic range of Fuji glass there to be honest, I'd say add the pancake XF27mm (currently £129 from E-infinity) for a compact walk around/general lens etc, or maybe a XF56mm f/1.2, and maybe source an older X-Pro1 body and you'll be complete.

It does not give any data for using both at the same time ( Which is normal practice with extension tubes) i wonder if this is a problem?I must place an order for the Fuji MCEX-11, fantastic for close up photography.

The H1 is a great camera. I have that and the T3 and have to say I prefer the H1 for most things. I won’t be buying the 16-80 that’s for sure. Though it is obviously a personal choice.If you look at the review of the 16-80 I posted earlier, it's not very impressive. It's not the sharpest from 50-80mm, I would go for the 18-55 and use the savings on a nice prime for your wife. On the cameras, that's more a personal preference I think. Do you ever feel you need IBIS when shooting the primes? If you get the H1 would this be the camera your wife might use now and then? she might not like the size and weight

Any recommendations for camera strap for an X-T3 - I currently use a wide shoulder strap, which was on my 5D, but is quite cumbersome. Any suggestions? I've looked at the Black Rapid buy boy they are quite pricey, is there equivalent at a better price?
Cracking, the first especially with the bass player in the background.
Sax solos? I'll take your Baker Street and raise you a Jungleland...
