No, there is no adapter included. User Manual says no word about it. My best guess is, that AF160 will attach to the metal barrel (bayonet).

IMO, F 100 Macro wasn't quite a tank compared to FA100 Macro. DFA 100 Macro WR is more compact and feels at least as solid as FA.

does but how does it attach, to the outer aluminium barrel or the
inner plastic barrel?
My F100macro is build like a tank. Is this one as solid?

Very first impressions:

+ it's extremely sharp
+ it's very well built
+ it's surprisingly compact
+ it covers 24x36mm frame (even the box says: Digital & Film)
+ it's weather-proofed
+ the front lens is placed a bit inside the barrel (barrel end acts like a
short hood)
+ manual focusing is smooth and firm

0 nice metal barrel screams for Limited-style front cap
0 the bayonet hood is plastic, not metal
0 49mm filter size (it seems that several quality brands start from 52mm
size nowadays)

- as it's screw-drive-only, the focusing is slow
- there is no focus distance limiter (which makes focusing even slower)
- there is no aperture ring
- inner (extending) barrel is plastic

BR, Margus
