Q: 1. How to connect this to Fuji X100V? What is recommended converter to the 2.5mm jack? (Or is there another option?)
A: The best option would be to use a cable like the Beachtek SC25 3.5mm to 2.5mm TRS Output Cable (B&H # BESC25). It will work in place of the original mic cable. This way you don't need to use adapters and will have one cable with the correct connector for your camera.
