I'm interested in purchasing a Zorki, FED, etc. 50mm lens for my Bessa R.
However, with all the variances in registration I've read about, it seems as though there's a very good chance that I'll be spending money on a paperweight.
What the deal with glass like this? Do you just roll the dice and hope for the best? Is there a simple way of shimming the lens if need-be? And how--and with what--is it done?
Thanks,
-CJ
