Like Gary, I too have been taking pictures using an inexpensive Olympus
E-500 body but with Leica glass. The ability of these magnificent
lenses to capture the subtlest nuances and details is absolutely
staggering compared to the well-engineered but cheap lenses that come in
a kit. I think 90% of pictures I've been taking have been with a Leica
lens since I got the adapter from Kindai.
With the marginal viewfinder, even with the 1.25x magnifier, I bracket
focus, but it seems like my eyes are just as reliable as the AF in the
camera.
