aksclix Posted November 20, 2021 Author Share #6 Posted November 20, 2021 @frame-it Correct.. 250 was clear I guess it’s more zoomed in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrayson3 Posted November 20, 2021 Share #7 Posted November 20, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) Of the remaining two, the biggest differences are colors, and that's a lot to do with the default Color Profile. Adobe does weird things to Fuji colors, so I'd think that @frame-it was right about the S(007) pic - mostly due to the weird purple vegetaion on the right. But different profiles could turn one pic into the other. OTOH, if these were processed in Capture One, I'd have no idea. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I am not wrong the Leica S 180mm with the fotodiox adapter can only shoot at full aperture and cannot focus to infinity? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it can’t focus to infinity, that’s just bad design. The flange distance is enormous on the S compared to the GFX. Aperture is probably fixed open unless you have a Leica S body around to do the turn it off while viewing DoF trick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it’s just an extremely basic adapter which is not well made either.. mounting the lens to the adapter is super tight! No aperture adjustments and no focus to infinity..

ZHNL Posted November 21, 2021 Share #13 Posted November 21, 2021 (edited) You can remove the mount screw, (forget which side now) there are a few pieces of shims underneath. Remove them can help a little bit but not enough for wide angle to reach infinity. Out of box, my 100,120,180 can reach infinity. With shims removed, my 70mm almost there. After doing modification, (send out to mechanical shop) all S lens can reach infinity. Edited November 21, 2021 by ZHNL 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrayson3 Posted November 21, 2021 Share #14 Posted November 21, 2021 Hmmm.. How's the IBIS with the S lenses? I had a lot of trouble with the Canon 24 TS-E on the GFX 100. The X-H1, OTOH, adapts IBIS to new lenses perfectly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The X-H1, OTOH, adapts IBIS to new lenses perfectly. Works wonderfully actually. 180S can shoot much much better with GFX with stabilized VF and also sharp at low speed due to IBIS. I sold GFX100S though because it is no longer suit my setups. 100M is too much for me and I reach smaller camera more often if not S. I might get FUJI back in the future but don't want it idle on shelf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aksclix Posted November 23, 2021 Author Share #16 Posted November 23, 2021 odd.. I had trouble shooting the gfx100s with the leica s 180 mounted at 1/60s shutter speed without causing blur.. i tried with IS shooting only and continuous setting on the camera and neither quite resulted in a sharper image.. at 1/160 it got better..

I managed to handheld shot 110mm f/2 at 1/15 and get pretty good hit rate. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
