Linda More knowledgeable members will correct me if I am wrong but I do not believe it is possible to make good use of Leica R lenses on Nikon mount cameras - which is a great shame because I have gone back to Nikon for digitial. I am using a couple of the new Zeiss Nikon mount lenses - I have to say I am very pleased with them and its likely they will be basis of my way forward with a full frame Nikon DSLR. I am anticiapting the R10 to be delayed, expensive and not totally compatible with R lenses. I am still using film with my Leica kit but I am having to adjust my film work flow as the local processors are getting unreliable. I am not sure how long I will keep it up but its the only way I can use my Leica kit at the moment. As to comparing pictures of Ema I see little difference between the quailty of the two sets of online images. The S5 is an excellent camera perfectly capable of matching the R cameras and you can get some pretty good lenses for the Nikon based systems. Apart from the Zeiss lenses I can recommend the new Nikon 60mm micro lens; it returns excellent images, it is very versatile and inexpensive. It will make a fine portrait lens on the S5. The new Voigtlander 58mm f1.4 Nokton has had good reports and is again inexpensive - the f1.4 could be useful for female portraits on the S5. Chris 2008/8/9 <linda.vermeiren@xxxxxxxxxx>:Dear members, I have a Fuji S5 pro digital camera now. I still use my Leica R3 and also the Leica CL/Still I feel sad not knowing how to put the portrait lens Summicron 90 mm tothe GFuji S5 pro body.I still think the black and white negatives with R3 and Summicron 90 mm arethe best.... Although with the eye ont large photos 25-38cm I saw no difference in the series of Erna.... The series of Erna with Leica is on the gallery http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Linda+Vermeiren/Erna/. The two bW's with Leica CL (40mm) ; the colors with the R Summicron 90mm. Alle the ones taken with the Fiju are the other photos of ERna http://www.studiofotograaf.be/ (series "vrouwen" Erna) I hope somebody might care to compare.http://www.main.furnfeather.net/Links/OFC-1.htm Is the Dandelion , a linkof "furnfeather' the solution. Can you contact these Russian people..?
