Frequently asked questions

Can I use the Fuji Photo Film EBC Fujinon-SW 19/3.5 lens on my Fujifilm X-series APS-C digital mirrorless camera?

Yes, use the M42 - Fujifilm X mount adapter and enable "SHOOT WITHOUT LENS" option in the camera menu. The 35mm equivalent focal length of this lens will be 28.9mm (73.6° angle of view) due to the crop factor of the APS-C-size image sensor of Fujifilm X-series digital mirrorless cameras. The automatic aperture control as well as automatic stop down will not be available. You will have to control the aperture and focus manually. For accurate focusing, try different manual focus assist options (zoomed-in view, digital split image, digital microprism or focus peak highlight) available with your camera, or use the lens' distance scale.
