No but if you want to experiment, try holding a filter in front of the lens or maybe getting technical with cardboard and sticky tape to make a holder for the filter that can be taped to the camera.

since i don't think anyone is going to have an answer to this thread, i will give you my odd-ish solution, but it's not for everyone.

go to your local camera store (not electronics store), buy any filter adapter that is big enough to fit around the lens area of your camera. next find a step ring(i suggest a metal one) in a size that the adapter can fit onto. glue the step ring to the body of the camera using 2 part liquid epoxy ($2 at local hardware store or walmart). now you have a thin, strong adapter mount like the one found on the sony W1, but this set up is permanant. now just screw the adapter onto the step ring and that's it. you can spray paint the step ring and/or adapter silver to match your camera if you want to (the fuji is silver right?). just remember to paint the step ring before you glue it to the body but avoid paint the surfaces to be glued. i don't suggest super-glue (aka CA in glue terms) because it is brittle, creates weird staining fumes, and is runny like water.
