Do you use any Pentax lenses with it?

Not yet. I have the XF 14/2.8, 23/1.4, 35/1.4, 56/1.2 & 60/2.4 Macro and
have a Viltrox 75/1.2 on the way. It's coming from the manufacturer in
China, so lord only knows how long it will take. They say March 7th, but
I'm not holding my breath.
I do have an an XF to K adapter and I used the 77 a little bit on my X-T1.
I might play around with some of my longer K Mount glass at some point.
I don't see any reason to put the shorter glass on as the Fuji glass is
as good, if not better, than the Pentax glass that I have that has
aperture rings.
At the moment I am trying to get Pixel Shift and Focus Bracketing to
work for me.
Pixel shift is way easier on the Pentax, probably because there is more
margin for error on a 36mp full frame than a 40mp APS-C sensor. I have
yet to get Pixel Shift to run with no errors.
I more or less have Focus Bracketing sorted out, the only issue I have
with it is how hard my computer has to work to sort out the 80mb files
in a stack.
The menu structure is pretty good, but it doesn't give any hints about
why some items are grayed out, which is annoying, and the owners manual
is both less than helpful and also digital only.
I much prefer paper manuals.
