Here is a link to Fuji's magnification chart. It might help to determine which you need, or both. Fuji recommends not to stack them, but I have read on this forum, that people do without a problem.

Notice the mecx-16 is not compatible with the xf14; even though you don't intend to use it on that lens.

I only have the mech-11 and I really like it. It kind of addicting on the xf35 (1.4). I have tried it briefly on the xf60 but I was too lazy for to breakout my tripod to get the best from it. Seemed quite good, though.

The mcex-11 was underwhelming on the xf55-200. Again, not your intention.

This is the 11 on the xf35 @F10
