Similarly in spirit to the thread https://www.getdpi.com/forum/4-3rds-cameras/57597-e-m1-e-m5-e-m5-2-etc-peculiarities.html that I started in 4/3rds Cameras I would like to see in this thread a discussion of FUJIFILM GFX cameras, Firmware updates, native and non-native lenses, images taken with them, and related subjects of general interests. In addition to the superb native GFX lenses, there are many other non-native FF lenses with large enough image circles to be of interest for use on Fuji GFX cameras.
Steve Spencer over at FM has two posts, namely

in which he discusses a long list of FF lenses that have been explored on Fuji GFX cameras. In the first reference above several lenses of interest to me are mentioned, quote:
"• Nikon Noct Nikkor 58 f/1.2 - Photographylife: https://photographylife.com/reviews/fotodiox-nikon-to-fuji-g-mount-adapter; also jasvyphoto: Jasvy Photography : Fujifilm GFX 50s Lens adoption possiblility
• Leica R 80 f/1.4 - Steve Spencer - good coverage of even 4 X 3 tested at portrait distances but not infinity
• Leica R 180 f/2.8 non-APO - Good coverage of 4 X 3 from f/4 even at infinity Jim Kasson: https://blog.kasson.com/the-last-word/two-leica-r-mount-180s-on-fujifilm-gfx-50s/
• Leica R 280 f/4 APO - Good coverage of even 4 X 3. Jim Kasson: https://blog.kasson.com/the-last-word/leica-2804-apo-r-on-fujifilm-gfx-50s/"
We (my oldest son and I) systematically explored the Noct-Nikkor 58/1.2 lens on 50S for MFD and Infinity focus distances, with and without a hood, and for all the image ratios the 50S offers. Generally speaking, larger apertures and longer focus distances vignette a bit more, as does the use of a hood. Here are some images, we took with the Noct-Nikkor on the GFX 50S.
@ f/1.2
@ f/5.6
Crop @ 400%, note the reflection of the photographer off the Lady Bug
@ f/1.4
@ f/5.6, vignetting in the corners, potentially lots of Apricots this year.
@ f/5.6
