| anyone using adapted lenses?
Hey guys just figured I'd post this and see how many of you are using old 35mm glass on your DSLR with an adapter? If so how are you finding it? Reason I ask is I have an opportunity to pick up a Pentax ME Super (ironically enough the 35mm I learned on and kicked myself for selling my first one) and it comes with a 50mm SCMA 1.2. From all the reviews I've read of the 1.2 it's a killer piece of glass with picture quality comparable to Canon L glass so I'm thinking I may still keep the ME Super for film work but from time to time I'd love to run the 1.2 50mm adapted on my XTi. I've also seen that some adapters have the circuitry to do focus confirmation ie the AF point blink and beep when you've attained perfect focus in manual focus mode. I was curious if anyone had used one of those or if not just one of the basic adapters and if so like I said how did the experience and was it worth it to run the old glass on the new camera?
