I took the Culminar 85/2.8 out for one last checkout.  I like this focal 
length when used on the Fuji, but continue to find that the uncoated 
lens elements produce a very low contrast image for me.  With a lot of 
post processing, I can get usable images, but feel that a modern, 
autofocus, lens would be a better choice.

Here is one image showing customer service at the airport.
