Fujifilm Teleconverter | 1.4

Buy Fujifilm teleconverter lenses online – Direct from the experts

With Fujifilm teleconverters, you can get more out of your existing lenses. They enable new framing options and help you capture distant subjects with precision. Discover original Fujifilm teleconverters for the X-System or the GFX medium format, as well as compatible attachment converters for the X100 series, now at Foto Siegl. This way, you can find the right solution to suit your camera and lenses.


Teleconverters as a targeted system extension from Fujifilm

Teleconverters extend the focal length of compatible lenses and allow for a tighter frame without the need to change lenses. They help bring distant subjects closer and extend the reach of your existing camera system. With system-compatible combinations, autofocus and exposure metering are maintained.

This form of system extension is particularly useful if you:

  • need a tighter frame without having to change the lens
  • want to bring distant subjects closer, e.g. in nature or landscape photography
  • only occasionally require a longer focal length and wish to deliberately avoid using an additional telephoto lens
Important: Due to their design, teleconverters are not universally compatible. They work exclusively with lenses designed for this purpose and must be matched to the camera and lens within the system.

Suitable teleconverters for Fujifilm X, GFX & X 100

Fujifilm offers various teleconverter solutions, each tailored to the camera system and lens type. These include classic teleconverters for interchangeable lens systems as well as special clip-on teleconverters for cameras with a fixed lens.

The key factors are which Fujifilm system you use and whether your lens is approved for the respective teleconverter.

Features Teleconverters Attachable Converter
Mounting Between the camera and the lens In front of the lens
Optical principle Extends the focal length, e.g. 1.4x or 2.0x Changes the angle of view
Use Greater reach with compatible interchangeable lenses Alternative angles of view with a fixed lens
Light intensity Reduces depending on the factor Generally remains unchanged
System integration Can only be used with approved lenses for X and GFX cameras For specific camera models from the X100 series

Compatibility of Fujifilm teleconverters

There is no general answer as to whether a teleconverter will work with your camera and lens. Three factors are decisive:

  • Camera system: X-System, GFX medium format or X100 series
  • Lens model: Only certain Fujifilm lenses are approved for use with teleconverters
  • Teleconverter type: 1.4x or 2.0x for classic teleconverters, model-specific attachment converters for the X100

Fujifilm’s manufacturer approvals provide clear guidance, which we clearly state in the respective product details at Foto Siegl. This allows you to see at a glance which combinations are compatible with the system.


The significance of the magnification factor

The extension factor indicates by how much the focal length of the lens is extended:

  • 1.4x teleconverter: Extends the focal length by 40%
  • 2.0x teleconverter: Doubles the focal length

An example: A 200 mm lens becomes a 280 mm lens with a 1.4x teleconverter, and a 400 mm lens with a 2.0x teleconverter.


When is a telephoto lens the better choice?

A telephoto lens is the better choice if you regularly use long focal lengths, require high light intensity or expect maximum autofocus performance.

In short: if reach is an integral part of your photography and you want to work without restrictions, a dedicated telephoto lens is the smartest solution. Feel free to browse our range of lenses.

When you need to get closer: Fujifilm extension rings 

Extension rings are the ideal alternative to a teleconverter if you want to get closer to your subject. They reduce the minimum focusing distance of existing lenses and are suitable for detailed and close-up shots without using a macro lens.

Compatibility here also depends on the lens and is specified in the product details.

FAQs – Frequently asked questions

1. What does a teleconverter do?

A teleconverter extends the focal length of a compatible lens and provides a tighter frame. This allows you to bring distant subjects closer without using an additional telephoto lens.

2. Do autofocus and exposure metering still work with teleconverters?

Yes, with system-compatible combinations, autofocus and exposure metering generally remain functional. However, performance may vary depending on the lens and the reduced light intensity.

3. What are the disadvantages of a teleconverter?

Using a teleconverter reduces the effective aperture of the lens. Furthermore, it is only advisable to use them with lenses specifically designed for this purpose, as not every combination is approved by Fujifilm.

4. What is the difference between teleconverters and attachment converters for the X100 series?

Teleconverters are inserted between the camera and the lens and extend the focal length. Wide-angle converters for the X100 series are mounted in front of the fixed lens and alter the angle of view without extending the optical system in the traditional sense.
