A rumor?
Or some news somewhere?
I too would love to have such, as this would enable us to use our beloved focus via wire lens.
However, I have read two posts in FM Alt, that Metabones was not considering such...

If it's a rumour, maybe I just started it.
I sent them an email early this week to ask if they have any plans for this. I'll post a dedicated thread if they answer anything like or even close to 'yes'.
I suspect the only reason that they wouldn't is if Fujifilm won't "play ball". Metabones seems to have Canon and Sony locked up, just fine.

A Oly 24/2.8 and a Zeiss 28/2.8 are challenging for the title of the WA in my 2-lens-kit. No time for real testing, but I have a feeling the Zeiss is going to win this one ( for me, I am a little sold to the Zeiss lenses if I have a choice )

Got a new lens. The Konica UC Hexanon 28mm F1.8 was a steal, I could not resist.
Next to it is a Konica Hexanon 57mm F1.2, which is also back at home since a short time.
I had it in the past, sold it, and always wanted it back.

Yes, great lens, but... not the same. The Contax 35/1.4 and 100/2 are both different enough that I would love to try them. In general I prefer to have a matched set of lenses, but one day, I will buy those two.
Yes the 100/2 is next on my list, or perhaps 135/2.
