If I ever get out of Newark, I now want to open the one waiting for me at 
home.

Has anyone in the US received a 60mm? That was why I bought the camera, but 
all Adorama shipped was the 35.

Also, anyone know anything special about the Fuji M adapter, or is the Kipon 
good enough? Does it focus past infinity?  I'd love to put my 35 Summilux 
ASPH up against the native lens, but I'm a little afraid of what the result 
may be...
