$2,751 for a mix and match Canon 50mm F0.95 lens ?

The C-Mount adapter will work on all of the Canon 50/0.95 lenses, RF coupled, TV-lens, and "Uncoupled/Not marked TV" lens. It fits into the breech-lock used for the Canon 7.

I have the Unmarked/Uncoupled 50/0.95 with C-Mount adapter, and the RF-coupled Canon 7 lens. The adapter fits both.

I wonder if I should convert my TV lens to M and then sell it or if I should sell it unconverted...

Right, didn't know that. But, If you are considering selling one then why not sell the TV-version with the adapter Brian? Might make you big bucks quick and you could have the other one converted to M for using on your M8 😎

I read this and I was instantly transported to 1984. Sitting in the classroom with the then-novel Apple IIc and a favorite game: Lemonade. In the game, the weather would change, as would the price of sugar, both impacting on sales at our lemonade stand. Sometimes rain and nothing would sell. Sometimes the heatwave would hit and the batch would sell-out....

And if you sold only one cup at $100, in the right circumstances, someone would buy it, if only to honor P.T. Barnum's memory.

I would not convert the RF coupled breech-lock lens, it stays on a dedicated Canon 7. Even have the fitted case for it.

Considering the cost of conversion, and the price of an F1.1 Nokton- I will buy a Nokton.

People are such idiots. Speed shouldn't be the only factor to consider when buying a lens. How about considering whether it's practical?
