Hi All, Has anyone used Leica lenses on X-T1? - particularly want to know if there was a substantial difference in IQ...thanks

Has anyone been shooting Leica glass on their X-T1, T2, T10, T20? If so, are you using Fuji's own adapter and which lenses, and how are your results?

Does this count? It's a Leica Apo-Televid 77 Spotting scope, SLR Adaptor, T-Mount to Fuji X Adaptor and an X-T1. The telescopes were made for a while and were quite popular, but the adaptors are extremely rare, it took me years to find one! It creates an F10 800mm lens, depth of field is tiny but it shows promise, you can see a test shot on Flickr here https://flic.kr/p/tgKeZb

Hello, A few weeks ago I went to see some motocross event close to where I live. I have been there in the past, but this year was the first time with my X-T1. I brought along my XF18-55, the XF55-200 but also an adapted Leica Summilux-R. I have used this MF lens in the past on my Canon gear and its rendering is wonderful. Focusing on fast moving subjects is pretty hard to do, so one has to use a different approach. Find a nice position along the track, where you can see the bikes coming. Prefocus on a piece of the track where you have possibility of a nice shot (e.g. after a hump, or in a bend). Set the f-stop to f/5.6 ~ f/11 for plenty DoF. Check the shutterspeed you get. Longer ones give nicer motion blur, but your keeper rate will drop considerably. I try somthing between 1/125 and 1/400 depending on the speed of the bikes and curves in the track. The whole set is on my Flickr, but the images are unsorted regarding lenses. https://flic.kr/s/aHskbHe8Pm Kind regards, Crispian
