    Default Old manual focus lenses

    I've started using my old Contax lenses again after several years of AF zooms on the newer Canon DSLR's.
    Man those lenses still rock. I have just had a play with the latest Zeiss ZE Manual focus lenses and they are just in another class altogether. I just couldn't resist. I had to get one to play with. I'll post some shots soon but by golly these things rock. F2.8 15mm, f2 25mm, f2 28mm, f2 135mm. The old f2.8 25mm and f2.8 135mm are great but the new ones...
    I'm still wondering if I'll sell the 30 year old glass or adapt them for a mirror less camera like the Fuji XPro1.

    Hmmm...adapting it would be an interesting idea...

    I bought a new Voightlander 40mm a couple of years ago for my D60, now used on my D7000. Whenever I get a chance to use it I am always amazed at how good it is.
