Gigas got a reaction from Vidalgo in 90mm f2 + Raynox 250 = True 1:1 macro
I have a fairly good experience of the XF 60mm macro and the 1,4 teleconverter with the11mm extension ring. You need the extension to "cover" for the protruding part on the teleconverter before you can mount the lens. I shoot a lot of aquarium shrimp about 1" long and use a f stop between 8-11 before diffraction sets in.
With this combination I get a 84mm macro that works for me.

Gigas reacted to Aswald in Damaged 60mm macro
Unless you have precision press machine, I wouldn't advice you to try yourself.
I would stop using this lens immediately and send it in for checks and a focus collar replacement by Fujifilm.
If you continue to force the focus collar, you may damage something internally. It's probably just pinched focus assembly at the moment but even then it may cause metal shavings in your lens.
