I really, really like the Fuji X100V. I previously owned a Fuji X100S. Great camera. Begged to be picked up. Wanted to take it everywhere with me. I did however miss the ability to utilise various focal lengths in the range 28mm - 70mm.

The Fuji X100V appeals greatly. Love the design, weather sealing, screen and redesigned lens - It's all great. And it would be my perfect camera, as DPreview have stated that the wcl ii conversion lens works really well in tandem with the new designed lens. Brilliant.

I realise that I can utilise the 50mm / 70mm in camera digital converter ( I do not wish to use the 50mm add on converter , as its too large )

The question is :

Are the 50mm / 70mm in camera digital converter images of decent quality i.e. will they stand up to good looking A3 / A4 size prints ?

Does anybody on the forum have any full res images taken using the 50mm / 70mm digital in camera converter that they wish to share ?

Finally a big thank you for your patience and reading this.

Kind regards,

Keep safe ......... Adam

Like you I was encouraged to read that the image quality with the WCL-X100 converter attached is significantly improved. Without wishing to hijack your thread, I'd be very interested to know if the image quality when using the TCL-X100 35mm (50mm) teleconverter has similarly benefited. And yes I agree, it's a rather unbalanced, front heavy combo, but in a pinch, when needs must, etc...
