Is the Fuji 18 55 weather sealed? Even though the 18-55 is not technically WR, how resilient is it against precipitation? It isn’t “technically” water resistant. It isn’t resistant at all. Fuji have made no claims that offers any sealing against water ingress.

Kit lenses can be used as a telephoto, but since they have an aperture range (for 18-55mm lenses) of only f/3.5 to 5.6, with f/5.6 being the widest aperture you can use at the longest focal length, you won’t get that blurry background (and that beautiful bokeh) that’s typical in professional portraits.
What is the difference between kit lens and prime lens? A prime lens has a single focal length (as opposed to a zoom lens, which has a range of them). A kit lens is simply any lens that a manufacturer puts into a camera kit.
