Sigma sell an adapter to use SA lenses on L mount. The two SA lenses that I have work fine on the fp. It's not cheap -- it costs about a hundred dollars -- but bearable.

How well SA lenses will work on a Panasonic or Leica camera I don't know.

I have a Panasonic S1. I use my SA lenses on it. Panasonic locks out some features of adapted lenses. The most notable is continuous autofocus, which more useful for video, but also burst mode.

Some of the fancy bracketing features are also locked out, but basic bracketing works fine.

Otherwise the lenses work fine.

However, I have been wondering if I should get an fp since there are apparently no such lockouts there.

Good question!  I don't know the answer, but if you start a new thread with this question your chances of getting a good answer will go way up.
