Fujifilm has just announced their new Fujinon Teleconverter XF2X TC WR, which is extending the telephoto area of some X Mount lenses. The new teleconverter will be added to the Fujifilm X-Series line-up in June 2016.
The new teleconverter is capable of multiplying the focal length of mounted lenses by two. According to Fujifilm, “it features excellent optical design with a construction of 9 elements in 5 groups to maintain the optical performance of the original lens. Also, thanks to the unified design when mounted to a compatible lens, the teleconverter is weather and dust-resistant and operates at temperatures as low as -10℃. This makes it possible to be used with confidence outdoors when used with the weather and dust-resistant X-T1 and X-Pro2 camera bodies, and the XF50-140mmF2.8 R LM OIS WR and XF100-400mmF4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR lenses”.
