There was insufficient information on various websites to explain how this mounted to the FujiFilm X100T - which is a fixed-lens camera. On youtube, the videos demonstrated that there was a ring on the edge of the camera-mounted lens that can be unscrewed rather easily - the finished product was so refined I didn't realize that there was a ring there, to begin with. This lens then threads onto the edge of the existing lens, very securely I may add. Once attached properly I don't see a risk of it coming loose and falling off.
What this means is that you need to use the screen of the camera as the viewfinder - which was not an issue - since the optical viewfinder was specific to the permanently-mounted lens. This conversion lens uses a 67mm filter which threads onto the front of it as expected.
The finish is beautiful - the same sleek silver as the camera. And the quality is as expected from this product. There is a newer version of this product but I chose this one owing to the price difference.
The lens does add some weight to the camera, but nothing unmanageable given that the combined size and weight are much less than my Canon 5D Mark II with the 50 f/1.4 attached.
I'll update this review as I use the lens a bit more - but so far the performance has been as expected. No drawbacks noted as yet.
There is a newer model of this item:

The perfect complement to the X100
When it comes to image quality, the Fujifilm X100T 16 MP Digital Camera (Black) is the finest camera I've ever owned. However, its fixed 35mm focal length isn't ideal for everything. As my interest in photographing people has grown (encouraged by the X100T's stunning skin tone rendition), I found myself wishing for a more focused length. Enter the TCL-X100B conversion lens: thread it on, switch on the relevant lens setting (Menu > Shooting Menu 3 > Conversion Lens > Tele), and voila! You now have a world-class 50mm walk-around camera. I initially thought I would switch between 50 and 35mm more, but the conversion lens has stayed on the camera 90% of the time since I got it. If I want to shoot a landscape or wider scene, I simply unthread the conversion lens, switch off the lens setting (I recommend programming this to one of the function buttons), and shoot. Best of all, there are no performance penalties to pay: no optical degradation, no autofocus issues, no vignetting. Its function is totally transparent, which really can't be said for a normal lens. However, since it's essentially a very high-quality magnifying glass, it adds significant bulk and weight to the camera. This is by far its biggest drawback, but for the pictures it gives me, it's a sacrifice I'm happy to make.

Die Qualität und Features dieser Kombo sind allerdings den analogen meiner Meinung nach überlegen.
Topnormalaufsatz (tele) für Fuji tcl für x100t
Das habe ich bei weitem nicht erwartet, wenn man das so sagen darf...
Ich verwende dieses Teleobjektiv mit dem B&W clear nanoprotect Filter für Sonnenschein und ohne Filter bei Normallicht.
Meines Erachtens nach kann ich die gleichbleibende Bildqualität bestätigen. Dieser tcl Aufsatz bleibt immer drauf und wird nur abgenommen für Panoramen oder andere Weitwinkelaufnahmen. Das einzige was mir aufgefallen ist, dass das Gewinde eine sehr zarte Rille aufweist. Hier muß sorgfältig gearbeitet werden beim Wechsel.
Ich bin absolut zufrieden mit der Topverarbeitung.
Ein Test mit meinem Chart hat ergeben dass alles perfekt sitzt und auch Fokus und Blende arbeiten sehr gut.
Diese Kamera ersetzt, ihres geringen Gewichts wegen, für den Urlaub meine Spiegelreflex Nikon D700.
Ich habe lange nach dieser Qualität gesucht, bin hier fündig geworden.
