Lens hood Freewell Sunshield FW-FU-XBR for Fuji X100 series, black

The Freewell Sunshield for Fuji X100 Series (black) combines lens protection with an integrated 49mm CPL/Black Mist filter. The polarizing element reduces glare and increases color saturation for clearer landscape and outdoor shots, while the Black Mist effect softens highlights for flattering portraits and atmospheric city photography.

Advantages

The sunshield provides physical protection against dust and minor impacts while remaining lightweight thanks to CNC-machined aluminum. The integrated CPL/Black Mist filter is user-replaceable and the rotating CPL ring with dual handles allows fast, precise adjustments. A magnetic cap with NFC gives quick access to instructions, and the system accepts other 49mm filters for flexibility.

How to use

Attach the sunshield to the Fuji X100 Series camera following the camera’s lens mount alignment. Rotate the CPL ring using the two handles to achieve the desired polarization effect; open the hood to access and replace the 49mm filter without full disassembly. Use the magnetic cap to protect the filter when not shooting and tap the cap with a smartphone to access the included instructions via NFC.

Recommendations

For best results with the CPL function, compose and rotate the CPL ring while observing reflections on water or glass to judge the effect. Use the Black Mist mode for portraits or high-contrast city scenes to reduce harsh highlights. Clean the filter with the included cloth before storage and avoid excessive force when replacing filters to maintain the CNC aluminum housing and magnetic cap.
