fuji x-mount teleconversion?

[BigCatDaddy]

Hi all. Loving my new ex2. Was trying to "reach" some swans at max zoom of 200mm. I thought a teleconverter might be nice, but I see its unlikely any made for the x-mount.

Can anyone suggest work-arounds? I see front-mount adapters for closeup work...some even high quality, any options for distance work?

If you wait a year there is the Fuji 120-400mm lens on the roadmap. For now a TC does not exist and likely will not for while as TC's are best with faster glass like f/2.8 or f/4. Perhaps at the end of the year the Fuji 50-140mm f/2.8 might have a TC option.

One option today is a 300mm f/6.3 Rokinon/Bower lens for X-mount, small and about $300

I don't see Fuji bringing out a tele converter, but wouldn't be totally surprised to see one from a third party like Kipon.
