I am a proud owner of a Fujifilm X100VI. I even managed to get one of the limited-edition versions from the anniversary. It genuinely is a wonderful camera that’s easy to use and even easier to have with you. It scored ‘Best for Travel’ in our Fujifilm Camera Buying Guide, and it’s a well-deserved accolade. The fixed 23mm (35mm equivalent) lens does have an in-between feel that’s a great fit for street shots and travel, but neither wide enough for proper landscapes nor long enough for portraits. When I say equivalent, it’s because the X100VI uses an APS-C sensor, which has a 1.5X multiplier on focal lengths.
Of course I wanted to find some way to get wider and longer shots, without adding significant weight. Fortunately, Fujifilm does have a wide and tele adaptor lens for this system, but at a price. I do own these as there were no real alternatives at the time. It was inevitable that other makers would seek to add more competitive options. The big question, of course, is whether they match up to Fujifilm's version, or if that’s not the intention, do they offer something different and unique that I might prefer?
