I’ve been recently musing over whether to buy the wide angle adapter WCl-X100<\/a> for my Fuji x100 thereby bringing the focal length down from 35mm to 28mm.<\/p>\n

Wide angle adapter WCl-X100 for the Fuji x100<\/p><\/div>\n

Its apparently a nice piece of glass which doesn’t alter the quality of the photos (yey) nor does it compromise the max aperture of f2.0 (yey). “It costs $350 – see a review here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This it what the wide angle adapter lens looks like mounted on a x100 – make the camera less pocketable!<\/p><\/div>\n

Which presents a problem re putting it in a case and having it strapped to my belt. “With the wide angle adapter mounted, I wouldn’t be able to do that anymore.<\/p>\n

And that was the whole point<\/em> of getting the x100 – something with a flat pancake lens that would fit in a camera bag attached to my belt.<\/p>\n

Coming up with solutions to carrying an x100 with wide angle lens attached<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well I guess I could use the wide angle adapter on special ocassions and forgoe the belt bag – but I would then need to do something like hang it around my neck or shoulders as I walk around.<\/p>\n

As I generally don’t like camera straps<\/p>\n
