Adapting other lenses to Fujifilm X

Manual adapters

Simple adapters from makers other than Fujifilm fit older lenses (M42, Nikon F, Canon FD, Leica M and others) to X cameras. They have no electronics: you focus by hand and set the aperture on the lens's own ring. The camera meters through the lens in aperture priority.

Camera settings that help

• Shoot without lens must be on, or the shutter will not fire without an electronic lens.
• Mount adaptor setting lets you enter the focal length, so the in-body stabilisation of the X-T5, X-S20, X-H2 and others steadies the adapted lens correctly, and the file records it.
• Focus peaking and focus magnification make manual focus quick.

Autofocus adapters

Third-party adapters with electronics exist for Canon EF lenses (Fringer and Viltrox make them). Fujifilm does not support them, and how well a lens works depends on the adapter's firmware. For autofocus, the lenses made for X mount are the safe route; there are 68 of them in our catalogue.

Framing

Any adapted lens frames 1.5 times tighter than its focal length on these cameras: a 50 mm frames like 75 mm.
