Does anyone know of a way to adapt Fujifilm GF (G-mount) lenses for use on an SL2?

Not as far as I am aware of. The flange distance for Fuji GF is 26.7 mm whereas it is 20 mm for the L-mount. So the thickness of the adapter has to be 6.7 mm, which should be doable. The L-mount electronics is only known for the L-mount partners (and possibly Novoflex), so the best to hope for is a fully manual adapter. But I would not be too optimistic regarding such an adapter.

Thank you for your information. I agree it is unlikely to be of significant interest to justify anyone developing an adapter.

The Leica M mount flange registration distance is around 28mm as I recall and the GF 26.7mm. There are many dumb M adapters available and even 1mm thinner LTM adapters so 26.7mm to 20mm would be easy. As to interest level - the rarest one I owned was for a Canon 50/0.95 to Sony e - not much demand for that one but it is out there. Price was over $100 for a $30-40 quality ring but that reflects the low demand. Possible yes but probable - only if we asll buy one! :)
