The 18 is probably a good choice for what you want. I have used mine at times for just that. however just of late I treated myself to a 10-24 and it spends pride of place on my XT2 most of the time, I do take it off now and then to use my 35 1.4 for shallow DOF and also my 14 2.8 but in general the 10-24 has such a good focal length span it covers most things and of course it does have IS.

I think the usb 11 cards will work ok in the camera and also the U3 cards but to be honest the U3 cards come into there own when shooting 4k video in the other models. You probably will notice a slight speed difference using the U3 cards and with the future cameras coming out I think I would at least go for the U3 cards. I have a mixture of uhs1 and 11 and notice no difference in the XT10 or XT2 for normal HD video or stills but of course with the right card reader the usb 11 cards download a lot faster.. Like most things these days in a while everything will be usb11 so for the extra it`s probably worth getting a future proof card now.

I have the 14 and in a word it is a superb must have lens ( I don`t use it as often as I should) I have the 23 f1.4 and it is again a superb lens ( I keep that on one of the cameras most of the time) I have the 35 f1.4 and again it is superb( always in my pocket) I have the 18-55 and to be honest I find it unpredictable, when it is good it is very good but quite often it disappoints ( I`m told to keep the IS turned off but whats the point of that) I never use the 18mm because although it`s not a bad lens it can`t touch the IQ from the 14 or 23 so I move around to frame up. I`ve never used a 56mm lens, I keep my 55-200 on the other body and being a superb lens considering the focal range it does everything I need of it.. so when I go out now days, I have a dual mount harness, XT10 and X-M1 (soon to be XT10+XT20) 23mm on one, 55-200 on the other) domke camera vest with 14,35 or just pockets depending which jacket. I don`t like changing lenses out and about and the 18-55 would fit the bill but with these newer Fuji cameras it`s all about image quality for me. So, I wouldn`t be without my 14, 23, 35, and 55-200 that way I know with a bit of moving around I have everything covered.
