OK Jim, I didn’t realize it was the trusted Oly 50-200 you used. Woulldn’t have worked on a fuji of course. Had thought it was an older manual lens you were using. MY BAD, sorry.

The photo remains wonderful but for the background artefacts :-)

Keep them coming. 

Amities

Philippe, with so little time on his hands to take cameras in hand, but who enjoys other listers' postings :-)

Insofar as I know, there is no way to use the lens' automatic features with a Fuji.  The solution suggested by Moose is to find a used E-M1 Mk1 body and equip it with a MMF-2 Olympus adapter, all of which can be had at a reasonable price.  I am expecting an insurance refund that should just about cover it.
