New to the system and I only have the GF 110f2.
Planning to get more lenses.
Since I want to get longer focal lengths and I don’t have any EF lenses at the moment, I was wondering if it’s worth to get the fringer adapter and say like the EF 100-400 L II or other tele primes. And if I get the adapter I might as well get more EF lenses like those wide/standard range, or those TSE.

I would say it's only worth paying the $500 adapter fee if you plan to use a lot of lenses that don't have native versions on GFX, or if you are on a tight budget and want to use cheap glass, especially manual focus glass.
For example, you probably don't need to adapt an 85mm DSLR lens if you have the 110mm Fuji lens. You probably don't need to adapt a 50mm lens because Fuji makes both a 50 and 55 that you can buy.

First time trying my Zeiss Contax 28/2.8 on the GFX 100S II. There is a small amount of vignette. The lens can focus as close as 25 cm.

How is uncorrected vignette at infinity?
It kind of funny in that vignetting seems to vary to me. Upon reading your question, I took these two photos. The first is at infinity f//2.8 and the second at f/8. Perhaps this lens is better for close focus work.

I like the separation foreground/background.
Thanks Louis!
The 180mm has great bokeh! Always has..These posts were just running outside in between raindrops, shoot and download.
I REALLY appreciate you responding Fred!
This was a quick "in-n-out" , dodging rain and wind,to make sure the Fringer GFX-Canon EF adapter worked.
I wanted member feedback also.
Thanks Fred!
Stay well!

I DO HAVE 1 QUESTION..THE ADAPTER...THE OUTSIDE ADJUSTABLE RING(A C---) iT "CLICKS" AS YOU TURN IT BUT HAS NO WAY TO TELL WHAT IT IS SET ON.
I found the answer on a YT video..it controls a setting (f/stop)on the top 100sii LCD. Would have been nice if Fringer's pamphlet mentioned that. Maybe they "assumed" I would know that? You know what "assume" means correct?
