Thanks for the comparisons. I have been very happy with the Fringer adapter. I skipped the Fuji 70-300 because I have been using the Nikon AF-P 70-300 FX with the Fringer adapter. I know the Fuji 70-300 focuses closer but I haven't been able to find a comparison of the two lenses. The Nikon AF-P 70-300 FX has received glowing reviews but no direct comparison with the Fuji version.

Sure, they were interesting.

I've only had the Fringer for a couple of days, but I immediately noticed that the 500mm pf seemed to be focusing a bit slower on the x-h2 than on the d500. Not that it was ever lightning fast, but it's a notch below I think. Actually, I should qualify that because I just now updated the Fringer firmware, so I should hold off on my conclusion there.

I love my Fuji 70-300 but have certainly also heard very good things about Nikon's 70-300s.
