> Yesterday afternoon it occurred to me to try the 135mm Leica Elmarit with eyes on the Fuji X-Pro 1. The lens is quite big and the eyes make it look even bigger. Of course, on the X-Pro 1 the eyes are not in the correct position relative to the viewfinder, but once you switch to the electronic viewfinder, then you are seeing through the lens and it’s all good. Much to my delight, the lens worked quite well. Here are two images, one with really close focus (about 1 meter), the other a bit further, perhaps 2-3 meters. Note that the exif data incorrectly shows the focal length as 90mm because the Fuji thinks I am mounting my 90mm Tele-Elmar on it whenever it senses that Leica M adapter.
