Getting ready to ditch all my gear other than Leica M8/9 and my X-pro1 I´m searching for options when it comes to optics.
Using M-glass is very nice and takes care of most situations, but I will probably add a 18-55 2.8-4.0 quite soon.
Would really like to be able to plan on adding a 10-24 2.8 as well, but there is the problem with directions of the aperture ring...
For me it is a real necessity to keep to what I am used with after 20+ years with Leica M, as well as 3-4 years on Canon FD before that.
Its just impossible for me to get used to any other focus or aperture-direction than this, it is really hard-wired in my brain...
The focus-direction is fortunately only a setting, but it seems it is not possible to alter the direction for the aperture ring?
I will also probably look into any possibilities for reversing the direction for the fixes X-lenses, although that might be too impractical of course...
Anyone with the same dilemma or wish?
