Might be interesting for some of you.
Last weekend I shot some pictures on the north Sea Jazz festival with my
Fuji x-pro 1. Mainly with a Leica R 135 elmarit coupled through a Canon eos
to Fuji adapter and a Eos to leica R adapter. Worked very well. Not so well
as a Canon 70-200 IS 2 with a fast body but for me it worked well enough.
Most pictures were shot at iso 5000.
I;ve also used quiet a few Leica M lenses on the Fuji and that works nicely
too. I have a cheap $26 Ebay adapter. I really see no need for the Fuji
adapter of around 10 times the price. I can even mount moere lenses with it
than with the Fuji adapter which seems to be too tight for some lenses.
