WCL-X100 II Wide Conversion Lens, Black

Fujifilm WCL-X100 II Wide Conversion Lens — The Street Photographer's One-Lens Upgrade

The gist: A 0.8x optical converter that unlocks a 28mm equivalent view from the X100 series' fixed 23mm lens — a wider, more immersive frame for street scenes, tight interiors, and environmental portraits without switching cameras.

• 4-element optical design: 4 lenses in 3 groups with FUJINON Super EBC coating minimise flare and ghosting, maintaining sharpness into the corners.
• Auto-detection on X100F, X100V, X100VI: The camera recognises the converter via built-in magnets and automatically applies lens correction — zero menu fuss.
• Minimal size penalty: Adds ~150g and a short extension to the front of the X100 body — still pocketable in a jacket and carry-on legal without a lens bag.
• 28mm versatility: Classic street focal length preferred by travel documentarians — enough context in the frame for environmental storytelling.

BestLightPhoto called it “the accessory to buy” for X100 shooters who need wider, noting it adds “a very minimal amount of size to the camera” without compromising the shooting experience.

Best for: X100F, X100V, or X100VI travel photographers who want a wider perspective for interiors, markets, or urban scenes without carrying a second camera system. Skip it if: you shoot primarily in low light — the extra glass reduces the effective maximum aperture slightly. Runs ~$340 — check the current price before buying.
