Fuji XT1 Adapter for Canon Lenses

I am wondering about whether it is a good idea to buy an adapter to be able to use my FF Canon lenses on my Fuji XT1. I see cheap adapters for sale as well as more expensive ones. Will the better ones connect to be able to auto focus? What are the pros and cons of using Canon lenses on the Fuji?

Many thanks in advance for your helpful and thoughtful responses. This is a great forum.

I think you will be shooting manual, which isn't that bad. I shoot manual with my X100s and Nikon wide adapter and the more I do it the easier it is. Check the other Fuji specific forums.

I shoot a Nikon 75-300 zoom on my Fuji X Pro-1 using the basic Nik-FX Fotodiox adaptor, and it works great in full manual or aperture priority. i don't see why their Canon to Fuji adaptor wouldn't work.

On second thought I do shoot aperture priority.
