The Fujifilm MCEX-18G WR Macro Extension Tube is for GFX series camera owners seeking to explore detailed macro photography. It enables significantly closer focusing distances and higher magnification ratios with GF-mount lenses, unlocking intricate close-up shots. A potential consideration is that it increases the physical length of the lens setup and requires careful handling for optimal results.

A macro extension tube is a hollow tube that fits between your camera body and lens. It increases the distance between the lens and the sensor, allowing the lens to focus closer and achieve higher magnification ratios for macro photography.
The 18mm extension tube increases the magnification ratio of your GF lens. When combined with lenses like the GF120mmF4 R LM OIS WR Macro, it can achieve a 1:1 life-size macro reproduction.
No, the Fujifilm MCEX-18G WR is a mechanical accessory and does not transmit electronic signals. Autofocus and auto-aperture control are disabled; you will need to set both focus and aperture manually on the lens.
It is designed for G-Mount cameras. Compatibility is confirmed for GFX 100, GFX 50S, and GFX 50R. Check your specific camera model's compatibility if it is not listed.
The 18mm tube provides less extension and thus generally less magnification and a longer working distance compared to the 45mm tube. The 45mm tube offers higher magnification but requires you to get closer to your subject.
The extension tube has external dimensions of approximately 82mm in diameter and 18mm in length. It weighs approximately 170g (excluding caps).
The package includes the MCEX-18G WR Macro Extension Tube, a Body Cap BCP-002, and a Lens Rear Cap RLCP-002.
The MCEX-18G WR is a mechanical extension tube and does not transmit electronic signals. Aperture and focus must be set manually on the lens. Ensure the lens is securely attached to the extension tube and the tube is securely attached to the camera body.
Extension tubes reduce the amount of light reaching the sensor. Use a tripod for stability, increase your ISO sensitivity, or use a wider aperture if possible. Manual focus is critical; use live view magnification to ensure precise focus.
Ensure the mounting marks on the camera, extension tube, and lens are properly aligned. Do not force connections; if resistance is met, re-align and try again.
Compatibility:
This extension tube is designed for Fujifilm G-Mount cameras, specifically compatible with models such as the GFX 100, GFX 50S, and GFX 50R. Ensure your camera model is listed for optimal performance.
