Manual focusing
Manual focusing
From my experience, I think manual focus is much easier than trying to focus on SLR/DSLR.
So far, I have not missed any, yet. Here's a list of lens that I tried:
- M42 CZJ 135mm f/3.5
- K-mount SMC-FA 77mm f/1.8
- K-mount SMC-A 50mm f/1.4
- M-mount Summicron-C 40mm f/2.0
- LTM CV Ultron 35mm f/1.7
- LTM CV Heliar 15mm f/4.5
Here's an example of SMC-FA 77mm f/1.8 at F2.0

pbhome - nice image. Have you found focusing to be easy and quick to do? I just got an email saying that my adapters are in route. 'Very much looking forward to using them.

Burkey,
Thanks.
For me, the focus is easy, and quick (I hardly need to zoom in for focus.) It is comparable with manual focusing. I would say the speed is between a rangefinder and a SLR. Even though it is slower than a Leica rangefinder, it is more accurate especially with fast tele lens.
