Thanks, Ric.  I never owned a Leica-R body, but the lenses seem to be 
well-engineered.  Heavy rascals, though.

Would the 2X extender combine with the Leica-R 60 mm Macro lens?  So I put the pieces together, put a fresh battery in the Fuji X-T2, and walked outside. (Although the X-T2 allows one to enter the focal length of manual lenses, I forgot to do it.  It still reports 500mm, not 120mm).

I finally spotted some Carpenter Bees.  It wasn't until I was looking at them on the screen that I realized I had another Eastern Carpenter Bee or "Green-Eyed Bee".
