One of the reasons I recently bought into the Olympus OM system was because of 
the reputation of the lenses. I have a 28mm, 50mm, 85mm and 35-70mm Zuiko 
lenses now. I very much like the results I see on film, but I also wanted to 
try those lenses on my Fuji X cameras. So I just got a Fotodiox adapter to do 
just that. I was especially interested in trying the f2/85mm on the Fuji, and I 
was not disappointed. My percentage of accurate focus was 100%, and I am really 
pleased with these results. Here are 3 samples, to which no further sharpening 
or other unnatural acts have been applied.

In my garden (I focused on the edge of the leaf in the foreground):

My daughter, a bit worn out after a flight from New York to Madrid followed by 
a 4-hour drive from Madrid to Alicante:

I know this is a bit sacrilegious, but this 85mm Zuiko lens is fully on par 
with any Leica lens in that type of focal length that I have ever used. Please 
do not start a religious war, my camera bag is a broad tent.

Cheers,
Nathan
