IBIS changes your ability to hand hold.
A magnified focus ability ( I do not use the focus peaking function) gives 
the user the ability to focus correctly, even in low light.
Leica glass is superb.... ( this past week I was blown away with the 
performance of the 38-70 R lens on my Sony A7rii, but M glass is as 
good.....)

The combination is just beyond good.....
Add the Techart M to Sony adapter for AF and Bob's your uncle......

Now you still have a choice.... Sony (FF)?  Fuji ( APS-C)?

Doug Herr is selling his modified A7rii, which was setup for using Leica 
glass on the Sony body.......hint hint.....

Hello Luggers,
I have availed myself of Calgary?s Camera Store offer to borrow a Fuji X-H1
with M to F adapter to try my Leica M lens on a platform with IBIS
and a very hi def EVF with variable colour focus peaking.

I have noticed that my focus accuracy hit rate has been going down (aging 
eyes) with the
M10 rangefinder and when I use the Leica EVF with longer lenses my hand
holding movements are magnified - hence the search for IBIS in a compatible 
camera
and my choice to try the X-H1 (since I am already invested in a bag full of 
Fuji
equipment).

Please have a look at the 9 photos in this folder:
