Canon LTM Canon 7 + Canon 50mm f0.95 Some Film test~

Canon M39 M39 screw mount bodies/lenses
Yes I will have remorse !

I decided I just don't use it enough to justify it when I want to buy another piece of gear. This lens is finally coming into its own after many years of insufficient respect.

same here, to be honest. I use mine very very once in a while, and every now and then I feel like selling it... but I don't know, I've sold one once and regretted it. but it's indeed hard to justify keeping a lens that is rarely used. I have been shooting 35mm mostly and have been favouring more compact lenses lately, which doesn't help...

this morning i put my 0.95 on my M4 which came from a cla and rf adjustment, this thread had an influence on this :) the 0.95 was converted and adjusted by ken ruth to match this body, before it was front focusing a bit (due to rf off), been a while I don't go out with this combo...

Nice pics. Your lens shows what is made for, good pictures in poor light.
I must admit that it takes about 10 to 30 secs. to focus any of my RFs when shooting at night (not to say an SLR!, that´s far worse). So, don´t worry, just enjoy it!
Cheers

BTW, Kevin, your picture of your Canon 7sz in the other thread looks great with the 0.95. I like using mine on an M3, but it looks much bigger than on the Canon! It is not so bad on the M8/M9. Below is a picture of mine on the M3, for comparison.

Hi Kevin,
You might want to consider moving up to using 400 or 800 ISO film. That will get your shutter speeds up, making the lens more handholdable. I would imagine it is a beast to hold steady at 1/15. 1/125th- much better :D

Thanks for your advice my friend~ I do will use 400 or 800 iso film for lowlight shoot next time~

Cheers

Oh,that's beautiful combination! :eek: I think both 7sz and m3 look great with 0.95~ thanks for your nice picture!:)
Cheers,

Dear Kevin,

The first photo showed the strength of the lens clearly. Very impressive.

Thanks for your watching~ I appreciate that you guys love my fist roll taken by 0.95.:) You guys encourage me a lot~ deeply thanks~~~
cheers,
Kevin
 
impressive lens!

just want to add that i am so glad to see people using great analogue lens on a FILM camera these days...i am old fashioned.

Very Kool shot Gary!

Seems to be like to me the "ultimate" vintage fast lens and looker on a M3 :D

Wish I could see what it looks like with the factory hood on it too.....it does take a bit of the VF out doesn't it? - Nothing a SBOOI or a factory Canon 50 finder wouldn't cure :)

After seeing this I so want to continue to plan my M3-6 FRANKENLEICA build, just have been finding it impossible to find a "donor" user chrome M6 classic, seems no one has one for sale out there......?

Happy Shooting!

Tom

It blocks a lot of the VF!
