Fujifilm GFX100RF Wide Conversion Lens Option

Recently, I wrote an article about yet another WCL and TCL conversion lens set coming to the X100 system—this time from Viltrox. In that piece, I also expressed my hope that someone would finally create conversion lenses for the Fujifilm GFX100RF as well.

Well, while we don’t have any conversion lens specifically designed for the GFX100RF, it looks like the Ricoh GW-4 wide conversion lens actually works fine also on the Fujifilm GFX100RF.

I have found a video about it and also a blog post, you can find both of them below.

Summary of the video:

  • The Ricoh GW-4 wide-angle converter delivers surprisingly high image quality on the GFX100RF.
  • Sharpness remains strong, both in the center and corners, even with 100MP files.
  • Contrast stays consistent with the native lens; no noticeable loss in micro-contrast.
  • Minimal corner softness at typical landscape apertures (f/11–f/16).
  • Distortion is very low for a wide-angle converter and easily corrected when visible.
  • Flare control is good — lamps and bright light sources show no major artifacts.
  • Vignetting is minor and natural-looking, often negligible in real use.
  • Overall: delivers a clean, wide 21mm-equivalent image without the usual compromises of cheap add-on lenses.

The GFX100S II Just Unlocked an Unexpected Drone Capability

Fujifilm announced that the FUJIFILM GFX100S II is now officially supported by the 3D photogrammetry software PIX4Dmatic.

This new compatibility enables users — particularly those utilizing drone-based aerial photography — to generate ultra-high-resolution 3D models from images captured with the GFX100S II, making it a powerful tool for infrastructure, plant, and facility inspections where detail and accuracy are critical.

By combining FUJIFILM’s 120 megapixel sensor with PIX4Dmatic’s advanced Structure-from-Motion processing, this pairing offers an efficient, cost-effective alternative to traditional close-up inspections — significantly improving safety and reducing labor in hard-to-reach or hazardous environments.

Viltrox WCL-X100VI and TC-X100VI Conversion Lenses for Fujifilm X100VI Coming Soon

Viltrox will soon launch the Viltrox WCL-X100VI and the Viltrox TCL-X100VI converters for Fujifilm X100VI.

The images of both conversion lenses have been shared on Viltrox Weibo and you can see them in this article.

There are a few other alternatives to the original Fujifilm WCL-X100 II and TCL-X100 II. I just any of these brands would make them also for the Fujifilm GFX100RF since Fujifilm apparently has no plans to make any.

10 Fujifilm Cameras Meet for Thanksgiving Dinner and This is What Happened Next

Thanksgiving is here, and while most families argue over who burned the stuffing, we in the Fujifilm community know the real drama happens when our cameras show up to dinner. If each Fujifilm camera were a guest, here’s what they’d bring to the table — literally.

X-T5
Arrives with a fully homemade meal, proudly reminding everyone that every single step was done manually — even the gravy. Keeps adjusting the dinner table “for composition”.

GFX100S II
Brings a turkey so gigantic the table collapses. Says it’s “just a casual medium-format bird”. Everyone pretends they’re not intimidated.

X-Pro3
Brings a gourmet dish but serves it face-down, so nobody can actually see it. “Stop chimping through the dishes. Focus on the Thanksgiving experience first, not the results” it insists, refusing to flip the plate over. Spends the whole evening fully present and savoring every moment.

X-S20
Shows up quietly with store-bought mashed potatoes, super humble, not bragging about anything. Yet all the other cameras side-eye it because it secretly carries features no one else has — like that fully automatic subject-detection mode that does all the work while pretending it’s “nothing special.

X-E5
Arrives with a small, perfectly curated dish — nothing fancy, but stylish enough that everyone compliments it. Quietly slips into a seat, looking effortlessly cool without even trying.

X-M5
Shows up with a perfectly plated appetizer, but keeps looking around the table like it’s lost. No EVF to guide it, so it improvises — and somehow, every shot still turns out amazing anyway.

X70
Shows up quietly without being invited… mostly because everyone forgot it even existed. Brings a tiny but absolutely delicious dish that makes everyone wonder, “Wait, why did Fujifilm never make another one of you?” Then it slips away before anyone can ask for the recipe.

X-H2S
Arrives with a towering trifle that’s already collapsing, fruit spilling everywhere, and layers sliding off the plate. Immediately realizes it’s still running last year’s flawed firmware, apologizes to the group, and rushes off to the kitchen to install the update — promising to return once everything is perfectly stabilized — it’s still there, struggling to connect to the smartphone app to finally install the update.

X100VI
Was supposed to bring artisanal cranberry sauce, but got kidnapped by scalpers as soon as it left home. Never made it to the dinner, leaving everyone scrolling online, refreshing for a glimpse of it. It was later spotted on eBay, held hostage with a wildly overpriced ransom for release.

X-T6
And then, totally surprising to anyone, a guest from the future shows up of nowhere: the Fujifilm X-T6! It brings a futuristic dish nobody’s ever seen before, full of features and flavors that blow everyone’s mind. The other fellow cameras on the table are curious, asks questions. The Fujifilm X-T6 just whispers something about having a new heart and brain, about firmware improvements, about features no other camera has ever heard of before. It ends up saying “everything will change” and then vanishes before anyone can ask more questions. Only left a note behind: read FujiRumors.com, and you’ll know soon enough ;).

The End

That’s my way to wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving.

And feel free to let more cameras join the dinner in the comments down below. Other brands are welcome too :).
