It's Rainbow Imaging ... here's the link to where I got it. It's actually very sturdy. Probably could have done OK with it instead of the Fuji, but I figured I would try some of the lens corrections Fuji offers, although I haven't yet.

All three: 35 Summilux ASPH.
Third shot is absolutely GREAT!
Oh, I see. Thanx! Never heard about this brand name. Looks pretty much solid and well build. Also price is more than Good. Hopefully it's not gonna give any focus shift for m-leses (known issue for cheap "noname" adapters). I'm using Voigtlander adapter - working without any problem, but kind expensive.

Some shots from Nikon 85f1.8 via speedbooster on Fuji XP1
40% crop
100% crop
Shot wide open (f1.8 becomes 1.2 on a speedbooster) converted to BW using SEP2
Pano crop - fountain in front of local library
From a walk around the local reservoir using the Nikon 24-85f2.8-4.. It is kind of nice having a zoom which is now a f2-2.8 due to the effects of the speed booster.
Pano crop shot at 24f5.6
@24 wide open f2
@85 macro mode 50% crop (don't remember the f stop)
@85f5.6 50% crop
@around 35f4 pano crop

Shot with new to me Summaron 35/3.5, X-E1. Here's the little beast:
http://www.rangefinderforum.com/rffgallery/gallery/1632/med_U1632I1376087012.SEQ.0.jpg
And the photo:
I was commenting recently that the XF35/1.4 in particular is so good that there is not a lot to be gained by using modern Leica glass on the X-E1. But there is lots of fun to be had with lenses that have 'character' - hence the new Summaron. As you can see, lots of flare at the top owing to the bright sky.
But then the question is how to process the digital file to preserve the old school look - in the end I opted for fairly low contrast and very little 'clarity' adjustment, plus a bit of grain. Otherwise you just end up with another sharp contrasty image which could have come from any other lens...
Any thoughts about processing?
Cheers,
Kirk

Looks great Kirk! You've definitely retained the character of the lens.

Recently purchased a Helios 58mm just after the firmware update. I should have done this sooner!

Check out images on Flickr made with the Nikon Series E 100/2.8... you might be able to save yourself some $$.
