Quick Answer
The Fujifilm AR-X100 adapter ring lets you attach any 49mm threaded filter to the built-in lens of the X100, X100S, X100T, or X100F. Choose the black or silver version to match your camera body.
Why Use an Adapter Ring?
The X100 series features a fixed 23mm f/2 lens with a smooth front ring that doesn't accept filters directly. The AR-X100 replaces that front ring, giving you a standard 49mm thread for UV, polarizer, or ND filters. It's a simple mechanical swap—no tools required—that opens up creative control without modifying the lens.
How to Attach the AR-X100 Adapter Ring
- Remove the existing front ring: Hold the camera lens facing you. Grip the outer ring (the one with the Fujifilm logo) and rotate it counterclockwise. It unscrews easily—don't force it. Set the ring aside in a safe place. Common mistake: turning the wrong ring. Only the outermost ring unscrews; the inner focusing ring stays in place.
- Align and screw on the AR-X100: Take your AR-X100 adapter ring (black or silver) and align the threads with the exposed lens barrel. Turn it clockwise until hand-tight. Stop when you feel resistance—overtightening can bind the threads. Checkpoint: ensure the ring sits flush against the lens barrel. A gap means cross-threading; remove and realign.
- Mount your 49mm filter: Screw any 49mm filter (e.g., UV, polarizer, or ND) onto the adapter ring clockwise until snug. The filter should sit flat and rotate freely if it's a polarizer. To remove, reverse the steps: take off the filter first, then unscrew the adapter. Common mistake: using a filter larger than 49mm without a step-up ring. The AR-X100 only accepts 49mm threads natively.
