[Leica] Focus Peaking on the Fuji XT1 with met Metabones adapter

[John McMaster]

That does not move the cam so the camera does not know you are focussing, you have to manually activate focus peaking with R lenses. Focus peaking will work with any attached lens, e.g. even a Nikkor ;-)

pretty sure if you use manual lens ID
the focus peaking (red, green or blue - as you wish) will show up even with a non-M lens.

In other words I'm pretty sure you can "tell" the camera it's an M lens.
