Thinking about a Pentax mirrorless.....

Many of the Fuji X lenses are very good, but very expensive.

You can use any Pentax K mount lens on a Fuji X-T1, using a relatively cheap adapter, and manual focus. As mentioned above, it's better to use Pentax lenses with an aperture ring, so you can control the aperture.

Fringer AF adapter for Canon EF to Fuji X has firmware updated to accomodate the 150-600mm tamron/sigma lenses.Maybe these can be used with the Canon 2x and 1.4x TCs?...thats about the longest Fuji can go(cheaper than the X mount 100-400)
