What I put on my X100V

The accessories I'd buy again. Links open Amazon in your country.

Lenses

WideX100 series

Fujifilm WCL-X100 II wide conversion lens

Screws onto the front of the lens and turns the 23mm into a 28mm-equivalent view, with no loss of aperture or autofocus. The camera recognizes it automatically.

TeleX100 series

Fujifilm TCL-X100 II tele conversion lens

Turns the view into a 50mm equivalent, still at f/2. Recognized automatically, so frame lines and corrections switch over.

Menu simulator

A working copy of the X100V menu, laid out like the owner's manual: every tab, page and item. Click an item, or hover the simulator and use your arrow keys. The X100V has one menu for photos and movies: movie options are in the MOVIE SETTING tab. Press DRIVE for drive modes, including MOVIE. Each item explains what it does and what to set it to.

      Menu names and descriptions follow the official X100V owner's manual. Starting values in the simulator are typical defaults and may differ from your camera. Recommendations are mine.

      Mode finder

      There's no mode dial

      The X100V picks its exposure mode from where the aperture ring and shutter dial sit, like a film camera. Set them here to see which mode you're in.
