Don’t Get Fooled: Fujifilm X100VI Lens Identical to X100V: Weather Sealing via Filters, Compatible with WCL/TCL and Sharper thanks to 40MP
When we shared the teaser Nr.2 for the Fujifilm X100VI, there were quite some out there commenting and launching posts on forums about how the lens of the X100VI looks bigger than the one of the X100V.
This lead to speculations that it might have a faster aperture, or be fully weather sealed without need of these filters.
But don’t get fooled by the images.
What I can tell you is that the lens on the Fujifilm X100VI will be 1:1 exactly the same of the Fujifilm X100V.
This means:
- identical in size to lens of X100V
- same f/2 aperture
- you still need the AR-X100 adapter ring and Protector filter PRF-49 to make it fully weather sealed
- will be compatible Fujifilm WCL-X100II and TCL-X100II
The only difference?
It is very likely that the lens will now perform even better thanks to the increased megapixel of the Fujifilm X100VI which will result in sharper images.
