p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Anyone interested in one image thread for Fringer examples?

I've noticed a lot of separate threads with images from those using the adapter with their X cameras. I for one wouldn't mind seeing them all in one thread, for usability. Thoughts?

Non-Fuji owner (yet), Canon glass, etc. ... would like to see a "one stop shop" to see how folks are playing with the Finger adapter.

I'm using it with my Canon glass. Am I able to start a thread or does a moderator have to do it for this sort of thing?

You can start the thread, I would just make an adjustment in the title, here.
I like when familiar things are kept in the same drawer, not everywhere...

I post individual lens threads specifically to avoid one big thread.

I don't mind cross posting a few images but there is such a wide variety of adaptable lenses that the thread would be very large. Also, many users only have one or two lenses they are looking to adapt and they want high levels of detail about that one lens.

Just my 2¢.

I guess I'm just a curious person - I'd like to see how it performs with a variety of lenses. I can see your point about it possibly becoming a long thread; that said, I don't think there is a plethora of photographers who have the adapter as of yet, so it might not become as long as you think. ?? Anyone else? I may just start one and see how it goes.

I totally understand the curiosity. I would offer that you will not accurately define performance from one or two posts per lens but I have been wrong many times in the past. :-)

For people who are looking to use specific gear that they already own and is unavailable in X-mount - Like long telephotos and f1.8 zoom lenses - They are perhaps more likely to search "Canon 100-400 with FujiX" than "Fringer adapter" since they may not know of the Fringer name.

So for me... I go with the specific titles. You should feel free to post up whatever you like.

Best regards,
Matt Crawley

Matthew Crawley! Great name. (Downton Abbey fan here...) :-)

I think I'll start the thread. I see what you're saying but I've never been able to keep my eyes open on those threads that pick apart every nuance and microadjusting magnitude of lenses... If folks want to share their images and thoughts they can, and if not, there are always the individual threads. Thanks!

EDIT - Ah, never mind!
