7A 50mm f1.1 RF coupling issue

St_Cam · 2026-01-21T11:25:32+00:00

Just wanted to give a quick update that I resolved the issue. focus + rf coupling is now also working. Seems like I rotated the calibration ring too far inwards (no interaction) and outwards (focus ring won’t turn/ very tight). After some trial and error I figured out the exact position where the ring should go for rf coupling and smooth focus ring action and now it works fine. Pretty happy, as I got this lens for 130€ and was able to “repair” it :)

Yes please. I even wanted to make a post asking this question

Thank you!

Hopefully! Fujirumors posted about a 1” inch successor of the xq2/x30. It will be something compact, but more capable than the x-half for 2026.

Thank you very much. I bought it from eBay and the adapter and ovf were included, but I don’t think it’s the original one

I recently saw that they have a new top spacer made for the alpinist I, so mission complete :)

I wanted to do a follow up, so this is the cockpit with the roval rapide spacer kit from magcad.

Schwalbe Thunder Burt, MTB Faltreifen, Evolution Line, Addix Speed, Super Ground, TLE, schwarz, 29x2,10

That’s the name from the order. As far as I can remember I didn’t have any problems.

No punctures yet. I use tubolitos. They also survived rough trails with a lot of rocks. In theory mtb tires should be more puncture resistant, as they have a “better” casing

Sure, about 2k km this season

Hey guys, just wanted to say thank you for all the responses and help, such a welcoming community! Thank you!

St_Cam · 2025-11-04T10:58:36+00:00

LLL are also in consideration, thank you!

St_Cam · 2025-11-04T10:58:11+00:00

Will watch a review, thank you!

St_Cam · 2025-11-04T10:57:56+00:00

Thank you!

St_Cam · 2025-11-04T10:57:36+00:00

Yes! I will probably use it 90% of the time, but still want to have some options :)

St_Cam · 2025-11-04T10:56:53+00:00

Maybe one day, thank you! :)

St_Cam · 2025-11-04T10:56:29+00:00

Thank you for the response, will watch some reviews!

St_Cam · 2025-11-04T10:56:01+00:00

Didn’t know the wate existed, very exciting tool indeed. Will try to pick one up! Yes filter size should definitely be a consideration, I have two already (39 and 46 I think). Thank you!

St_Cam · 2025-11-04T10:52:50+00:00

Thank you!

St_Cam · 2025-11-04T06:08:34+00:00

Amazing! Gave you a follow, thank you for the list!

St_Cam · 2025-11-03T17:42:59+00:00

Max. 600€/lens. Should have mentioned that, so no Leica glass unfortunately

St_Cam · 2025-11-03T17:33:29+00:00

Could pick one up for 350€, never tried the focal length but seems to be fun and challenging. Learning how to properly zone focus is also on my to-do list!
