I received my Letus Extreme Today. I have not put it on the camera, but I am impressed. I hope to post some grabs from my FE and EX to compare some side by side shots.

I'm waiting for mine. Since using an adapter with additional lens is new to me, I was wondering how I would focus or use the zoom. I mean do I use the zoom and focus on the camera (EX1) in combination with the zoom/focus on the 35mm lens to achieve the look I want or something else. Do I first adjust the zoom and focus on the camera and then adjust the lens's zoom/focus/aperture second or what? What are the steps?
 
You adjust the zoom/focus on the camera for initial setup then use your 35mm lens for everything else. As a general rule, there is always room to play around a bit with mixing some zoom on camera if you need a little. Focus, however, you want to leave alone once you have it setup. Once you start using an adapter, you'll get the hang of everything.

Aperture is a balancing act between the 35mm lens and the camera. I typically use a mixture of both depending on the situation. I am by no means a professional DP though. I do what works for me and my small shoots on the side.
