Hallo everybody, I stumbled upon this thread while I was surfing and wanted to add my 2c. With a flange to sensor distance of 17,7mm the native Fuji lenses would have to be about 10mm closer to the film when using a LTM body. The diameter of the bayonet is probably quite a bit bigger than 39mm. To get the lenses further back in the camera body you would have to do a bit of cutting about on the front side of the camera chassis. There are many LTM cameras around, with some going for almost nothing (Russian Feds for example) and I suppose it could be an interesting little project to find out if it is possible. You would need the camera-side bayonet, attached to a plate and somehow recessed by 10,1mm into the front of the camera. Tricky but not impossible, where there's a will there's a way! This does not mean it would be half frame (unless you get a half frame version e.g. Leica 72!!) but I suspect the resulting pictures would be full height (the picture circle of the lens is uniform so the film would not be exposed only at the sides) and so perfectly usable. There would be quite a few detail problems like the lens release mechanism,but thats the challenge of a project like this. I've just mounted my Sony QX1 to the Ricoh Teleca 240 binocular camera and it works well.
Many regards
Chris Clark
