Fujifilm TCL-X100 II Black Tele-Conversion Lens

This is a high quality adapter that works seamlessly with my X100F. It obviously shows up when you use the OVF as folks have noted, but that just comes with the territory and is something your eye ignores at some point. I have not found the focusing significantly slower or less accurate, as others have reported. Quite snappy, really. And, while it clearly makes the camera bigger and more imposing, I actually like the extra real estate -- it makes it much easier to cradle the camera and to diddle the aperture and focus rings, which I do quite a bit.My only caution is that this lens feels so good on the camera and its 50mm equivalent field of view is so refreshing that I find myself getting sucked away from the wonderful enforced 35 mm experience that I bought the ... MoreThis is a high quality adapter that works seamlessly with my X100F.

I guess having two different experiences, both of which are terribly seductive, is a good kind of problem to have.

This lens is a fantastic addition to a X100F camera and doesn't degrade image quality one bit, but there are two caveats: 1) it kinda makes it a little unbalanced. The whole reason I bought the X100F is it's compact nature and how portable it is. The lens, when screwed on, doesn't make it so much heavier, just bulkier and a bit less fun to shoot with. But that for me is in no way a deal breaker, but number two very well could be and that is 2) it's not very durable at all, and if something does go wrong Fuji up in NJ isn't going work on it. In my case, I was attempting to mount the screw on lens flange, dropped it on to a low pile carpeted floor at an event I was shooting, and caused the lens to go ever so slightly out of round on the mounting flange. Game over. No ... MoreThis lens is a fantastic addition to a X100F camera and doesn't degrade image quality one bit, but there are two caveats: 1) it kinda makes it a little unbalanced.

Game over. No more TCL as there isn't a way to have it fixed. So, if you don't have butter fingers like me or don't plan to attach it mid-event, it's all good. Otherwise, maybe you should pass.

Does exactly what it is intended for and does this very well. I was a little skeptical due to the size and weight of the conversion lens. But in actual use so far it has proved not to be an issue.I now carry the camera and both conversion lens (WCL and TCL) in a very compact shoulder bag. The full outfit seems to handle a variety of scenes competently. The time required to install or remove one of these conversion lenses is only slightly longer than changing a lens on an interchangeable lens camera.
