Check the fit of the SmallRig 5622 Leather Case on your Fujifilm X100VI. Step-by-step tips for a secure, scratch-free installation.

Quick Answer

The SmallRig 5622 Leather Case fits the Fujifilm X100VI precisely. Follow these steps to install it without scratching your camera or blocking ports.

Why Fit Matters for a Leather Half Case

A leather case that fits poorly can leave gaps where dust and grit get in, or it can press against buttons and dials. The SmallRig 5622 is molded for the X100VI body, so alignment is key. A rushed installation is the most common cause of a loose fit.

What to Check Before You Start

Make sure your camera is clean and dry. Any debris trapped between the case and the body can scratch the finish. Also confirm that the case is the version for the X100VI, not the earlier X100V — the tripod mount and grip contours differ slightly.

Step-by-Step Fit Guide

  1. 1. Remove the base plate: Unscrew the SmallRig 5622’s bottom plate completely. Set it aside with the screws in a safe place. Do not force the plate off — it should slide free once the screws are out. Check that the screws are not cross-threaded before reinstalling.
  2. 2. Slide the case onto the camera body: Hold the X100VI with the lens facing away from you. Align the case’s top edge with the camera’s top plate, then gently press the case down so the leather wraps around the sides. The grip area should sit flush against the right-hand contour. If the case feels tight, do not force it — you may have the wrong orientation. Rotate it 180° and try again.
  3. 3. Secure the bottom plate: Place the metal bottom plate against the camera’s base, lining up the tripod socket and the two screw holes. Hand-tighten the screws in a cross pattern (top-left, bottom-right, then the remaining two). Stop when you feel resistance — overtightening can crack the leather or strip the threads. Use a coin or the included tool, not a power driver. The plate should be snug, not torqued.
  4. 4. Verify cutout alignment: Check that the USB-C port, battery door, and memory card slot are fully uncovered. Press the shutter button and the rear dial to confirm they move freely. Look through the viewfinder — the case should not obstruct the eyecup. If a cutout is misaligned, loosen the screws slightly, shift the case, and retighten.
  5. 5. Test stability and grip: Hold the camera in your shooting hand and shake it gently. The case should not shift or rattle. Then set the camera down on a flat surface — the bottom plate must sit level so the camera does not wobble. A slight wobble means one screw is tighter than the others. Loosen all four and retighten evenly.
