Question 1

How close is the magnification with this?  also, would the system retain wr while using this?  i'm going to costa rica so wr is essential. thanks.

Hello Barbara,The magnification is relative to the lens you are using; 60mm or 90mm. The WR (weather resistant) part of the lens is just an o-ring in the back outside portion of the lens mount, it is not designed to be used is rain, it just helps eliminate the potential of water seepage in between the camera and lens mount. However that is a questionable claim, being that the mount between a camera and lens, when metal on metal, creates a seal. Therefore some people question the validity of the claim that the WR actually provides WR and claim it is only a marketing tool. Bottom line is that Fuji cameras are not designed to be shot in the rain unprotected. Basically my thought is that, that should not be the deciding factor. If you need a greater reproduction ratio, these ext tubes are the best ones for the system you have. I personally did not have any problems with my gear when in Costa Rica, however I did not attempt to shoot out in the open when it was raining, and none of it was weather resistant product other than a GoPro, which we used underwater.Regards,RoozbehOC camera

Question 2

Will this work with the 35mm f2?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there is a list in Fujifilm website about the magnification of the tube and the 35mm F2 is in it. You can check. http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_cameras/accessories/pdf/mcex_01.pdf

Question 3

Can this be stacked with the 16mm?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can stack the 11mm extension tube with the 16mm extension tube. However, in testing I found that there is a loss of contrast and fine detail at f/4 - f/8, similar to diffraction effects. On the other hand, good resolution and contrast was achieved at f/22. The test I conducted was done using the Fujinon XF60mmF2.4 R Macro on an X-E2.

Question 4

Does it worked with the 18-55mm lense?

Accepted Answer

Extension tubes work with all Fuji lenses.  For macro work some lenses are better than others in terms of working distance from the subject, degree of magnification and working distance.  The shorter the focal length the greater the depth of field but the closer you have to be to the subject.  My favorite Fuji lens for macro work with their extension tubes is the 90mm f2.  The 100-400mm is interesting this way also.
