Worth to mention that if you shoot only JPEGs you can get 41mm and 58mm FFE focal lengths with the digital teleconverter function (read digital zoom on steroids). I wish Fuji would install 40mp sensor and allow for 35/50/75mm FFE focal lengths through digital teleconverter in the next iteration of X100.
it would make the camera heavy. Like the Leica Q, the body is small but the weight isn't, I think that is not the initiative that Fujifilm would take
@@khoale219 he is talking about a purely digital function of the sensor using the same lens... the reason the Q is bigger / heavier is it is both a full frame sensor paired with a full frame 28 mm lens... in the new version of the X100, likely being announced on 2/20/24, they will add the 40 megapixel sensor with the existing 35mm equivalent lens from the current X100V and I bet dollars to donuts the digital teleconverter will do 35/50/75 right out of the box much like the Q2.
@@canyonblue737-8 aight bet
You dream came true
@@junlangley6725I was just going to comment that. He manifested it lol
epic photos no matter what lens :D lol.
it's so nice to see that there are options despite built in lens, aaah I can't wait to get my cam and just try lots of things
Always a good day when Thomas releases a new video. 🤙🏼
Hah thanks Benj! Trying to offer up a good day every week lol
agreed.
luv how this extender keeps the lens at F2!!
Hey great video man. Fuji are some legends for even developing these 2 adapters for the x system
Im picking my wcl this weekend
thanks! yeah those adapters really add some value to the already amazing x100v. Epic!
Nice pics and informative video; thx!
appreciate it!
Glad you mentioned the pouch - I almost threw mine out with the box by mistake because I didn't notice it in there at first!
haha glad you caught that!
Love the montage!!!!
Thanks!
Thanks for the review. I've been thinking of picking up this adapter but i'm on the the fence.
course! it's pretty fun! Highly recommend
Really like your photos.
thank you!
The 28 served me better for shooting architecture or dwarfing human subjects against building features. I got some shots of landscapes and it did ok. I’m more of a wide angle fiend but I would much rather use my XH1 for that.
Awesome video, definitely help with my decision making process. Also loved the photos! I might’ve missed this, but how are you colouring up your photos, Lightroom preset or sims?
Thanks! Glad it was helpful! Yeah I shoot all in RAW and use my own presets!
great video! i'm still new to photography, i wanted to ask how you got that cool motion blur image at 13:04? What was the shutter speed/aperture to achieve that and how were you moving the camera while it took the shot?
It looks like he was just walking with a camera at around 1/8-1/4
Hi. When you say you missed focus a lot with the WCL, it doesn't recommed it to me personally although i would love the extra width it provides. Thanks for reviewing.
definitely! it's a fun piece of kit that does change things up. If anything you can always get a xe-4 or xt5 and get some different lenses
Take a peek at the photos and you can see that I still got quite a bit of good shots! The AF definitely feels slower than the native lens though
You mentioned that you shot in RAW. Did you notice any distortions with the convertor than need post correction? I believe there is in camera jpeg correction activated by magnets.
Very nice photos! Are you using a diffusing filter? On the ones right after the conclusion.
Thanks! Just a UV filter
@@thomas.kovacik ohh interesting, must be a clarity setting or something! might have to get your preset to find out
Stupid question maybe, but does the camera remain waterproof with the WCL?
yeah it maintains the weather sealing!
hi! Im struggling to set up correctly the slog 3 on my fx3, can you please help me with that? thank you very much
Excellent points! I moved to griiix. Pocket ability or Fanny pack gang is so convenient. Just move my feet to recompose.
thanks! yeah that's a great move, the portability is huge. Being able to have something like that would be ideal for me too
could you drop your camera settings setup [not recipes] more like the layout, buttons etc ! thank you !
yeah! I have another video on the channel where I go through how I set it up! It's older but I haven't changed things up
Did you get the ricoh?
I did! videos coming soon haha
Do I want this or Do i need this? either way i'm getting it
hahah I love it, if anything you could sell it later on! It's fun to try out
@@thomas.kovacik just bought it today! Love it, and the autofocus seems to work as well as without it
Where did you buy it gunnar?
@@baldo.fuji1 b&h in new york
@@baldo.fuji1 there's a link in the description: Fuji WCL
X100V
So, just make the X100V with an interchangeable lens!
Could be cool if they can give us tiny lenses like Leica m! For now these conversion lenses do the job I suppose hah
use a xe4 with the fujicrons and youre done. @@thomas.kovacik
@@thomas.kovaciki agree. Interchangeable would defeat the purpose of the x100v.
Buy the xpro or xe series instead of x100 problem solved
Now there’s the choice of the x-t50
"fuji solved this problem for us", this more of a create a problem and sell the solution type of situation (and I love my x100v :) )
What problem did they create? Like he said a ton of times in the video, 35mm is great and this just gives an extra *option*
