Hello, My first post to the forum and asking for Contax N lenses to Fuji X bodies adapter with auto diaphragm. I have now the Kipon one, with light source reduction over the adapter itself. That doesn't work, as lens diaphragm needs camera contacts to close and a diameter reduction passing that point doesn't modify focus deep. The lens works at maximum aperture or heavy vignetting (and always minimum focus deep). There are some adapters for those lenses on Sony E mount, even with autofocusing. Nothing about Fuji X. Someone having happy news? Thanks in advance Jorge

Hi, anyone that has both could please chime in commenting about difference in sharpness? Even people shooting with other brands are welcome (I've been a Nikon shooter for a decade, and a Canon one for another decade). I have a pretty complete Contax setup, and I'm not sure if buying Fuji glass would make a meaningful difference in sharpness (besides other benefits like AF, OIS etc.). A few details: - I shoot landscapes, mostly, my cameras are 90% of the time on a tripod and I need the ability to print on matte and semi-matte paper up to 120cm / 47" - my Contax setup (for reference): 18, 35, 50/1.7, 60 Makro, 28-85, 100-300 - Fuji setup I plan to buy: 14, 23/1.4, 56/1.2, 18-55 (only for walking around and seascapes, when I can't change lenses without water drops landing on the sensor), 55-200 I am already adapting the Contax glass to the Fuji, and yes the results are generally pretty darn good (the partial exception being the 18mm). But I guess I'm just wondering how much more can I "squeeze" from the Fuji with better native lenses (better than the cheap 16-50 xc) considering that even the über-cheap 16-50 is really quite sharp. Thanks in advance!

Does anyone have experience using these flashes on fuji x cameras? Thank you very much!
