Fuji Teleconverter 1.4 Second Hand

Fuji Teleconverter 1.4 Second Hand

FUJIFILM Corporation (President: Shigehiro Nakajima) is pleased to announce that the new "FUJINON XF1.4X TC WR TELECONVERTER", a teleconverter that expands the telephoto area of some X*1 mount lenses, will be added to the "X Series" interchangeable lens range for high-end mirrorless cameras in November 2015.

The "FUJINON XF1.4X TC WR TELECONVERTER" is a high-performance teleconverter capable of multiplying by 1.4 the focal length of mounted lenses*1. Although the aperture is a step higher when mounted, the teleconverter incorporates an excellent optical design with a 7-element structure in 3 groups to maintain the optical performance of the original lens. In addition, thanks to the unified design when mounted on a compatible lens*1, the teleconverter is resistant to inclement weather and dust and operates at minimum temperatures of -10 °C. This makes it possible to use it with confidence outdoors with the X-T1 camera body and the XF 50-140mm F2.8 R LM OIS WR lens, also weather and dust resistant.

• *1 compatible lens (as of October 2015) XF50-140mm F2.8R LM OIS WR 70-196mm F4 with mounted teleconverter (equivalent to 107-299mm in 35mm format)

1.Main features

High-quality image design that maintains the optical performance of the original lens

The 7-element structure in 3 groups maintains the optical performance of the original lens.

By using the optimal image quality parameters for the overall characteristics of the original lens and the 1.4x teleconverter, it is possible to achieve excellent image performance with excellent aberration suppression when the focal length is multiplied by 1.4.

The camera displays and records information that reflects the change in aperture and focal length when the teleconverter is mounted.

Camera autofocus performance is not affected by the addition of the teleconverter

An AF speed equivalent to that of the lens is achieved only when the teleconverter is mounted.

Thanks to the "Live View" contrast-sensing autofocus of mirrorless cameras, shooting with minimal aperture values is still possible despite the increase of one aperture step when mounting the teleconverter. In addition, precise focusing with shallow depth-of-field super-telephoto focal lengths is made possible by the AF performed by the image sensor.

Weather and dust resistant and able to operate at temperatures down to -10°C

Using the teleconverter with a weather-resistant camera and lens, such as the high-end mirrorless camera "FUJIFILM X-T1" and the "FUJINON XF 50-140 mm F2.8 R LM OIS WR" lens, does not affect the system's resistance to inclement weather.

Subtle appearance of high quality

The high-quality metal exterior of the teleconverter has been designed with the X system in mind. When mounted on a compatible FUJINON lens, the two products look like a single lens.
