Ted I started investigating Fuji in Canada two years ago. Currently using the Fuji XT 1, an XE2 for most of my interior shooting and a small X100 T which is a simple and beautiful results camera to have with you all the time with a fixed lens.
I love the rangefinder style and have the X Pro 2 on order.
The Fuji M mount adapter allows me to use my Leica lenses if I wish too and as Nathan said the 90 Leica on the XT 1 is superb. But again as Nathan said the Fuji lenses are superb.
I would not have invested in this system had I not been very pleased with the bodies but more than that the results I get.
I still use an M9 from time to time but Fuji is the go to for most of my work.

I never thought I would go with a fully electronic viewfinder but the one on the Fuji is so good, and provides so many useful features, that I converted. Using my Leica lenses, especially the 90mm, on this body, is a joy. And of course the Fuji X lenses are excellent.
