WCL-X100 in 2024

[@JayRegular]

Have you tried the WCL-X100? how was your experience with this conversion lens? Let me know!

[@Vvvrrrmmm]

Could also get a Leica Q and then you would have full frame also. If only it was affordable lol

[@PabloChavezR]

Thank you Jay! You're my copilot when it comes to the Fujifilm X100V :)

[@desoriordan9515]

That's very good information on the Capture One distortion correction or lack of with the WCL. I have the V for nearly 4 years now but have never used a conversion lens. The fact that the WCL has the same filter thread as the camera lens itself makes it the more likely of the two i would go for.

Thanks for your insight about WCL Jay! I bought it half a year ago go and it always stay on my camera! I loved it the moment I got it. 🎉

Well done Jay! Very informative, and an enjoyable video. I haven't tried a conversion lens yet, but really appreciate this information. I have learned so much from you, and I am forever grateful. 📷😊

[@JayRegular]

Thanks Lucy! It's definitely something to consider if you are strictly shooting on the X100 body as the cost for the standalone Fuji 28mm (18mm) lens cost so much more!

[@desmondedwards6309]

I had the desire to get a little wider shot from time to time and thought about trading my 100V for the X-T50. With this video I need to re think. Thanks for the info

[@sstokoe2301]

Great review…..Thanks so much!

[@ianburrows8398]

Great video. Love the images from Cabramatta.

Crazy Good Photos my man. Which Recipes did you use?

[@rogerbrooksfilms]

I’ve often considered getting one for my X100F, but I’ve never liked the longer appearance. One day I reckon I’ll get it done and take the leap. Very informative video. ✌️

[@JayRegular]

Don't wait too long, it's bound to go higher in price once the new x100 lands

[@LloydSpencer]

I used the WCL-X100 almost all the time for years. It’s BIG drawback is that it spoils the form-factor of the X100 series. I used it now and then since buying a Fuji with interchangeable lenses.

[@JayRegular]

That's true, I would agree that the form factor isn't ideal, but compared to the TCL it's a lot more tolerable. I guess the only other alternative is to get an x-e4 with the 18mm f2 which works out to be cheaper overall, assuming you don't already own an X100.

[@edc5338]

I have both conversion lenses and I tend to use the WCL2 the most. Very sharp. I assume the new x!00vi will accept these.

[@JayRegular]

yeh, hopefully the WCL is capable of resolving 40mp

[@GrenvilleMelonseedSkiff496]

Haven’t tried it yet as I’m enjoying my one camera, one lens experience. That said, I might very well give it a try one day as I’m shooting mostly landscapes and the wider FOV would be closer to what I’ve been accustomed to with my iPhone. 📷🙂

[@JayRegular]

Haha, I went through the same thing when I bought the X100V on day 1, which I don't regret. But with the rising prices, I almost wished I bought it 3 years ago, now the prices aren't as pretty...

[@WhoIsSerafin]

I’ve bought both focal lengths. The 28mm I use so much with it, that it’s probably 50/50 for 2023. I don’t enjoy the 50mm one because of its unusual size it makes it a bit awkward to carry with the 100v.

[@JayRegular]

Yeh I've called me to love the 28mm more now, it makes shooting from the chest or hip a lot easier once you get used to the distancing

[@MrHappy-hs6sn]

Impressive
