Original Canon Lens Hood?

Ah, yes... my brain was not properly engaged. Zone focusing would be needed of course. Still, I have a few nice WA FD lenses, and a super-wide Vivitar 19/3.5 that would probably work. I do have a turret finder I picked up on ebay and that might come in useful for the 28 I have.

Thanks for this information.

You will find that the seperate finder comes in very handy. The FD lenses are quite a bit larger than the RF equivalent, and they do intrude on the FOV to some extent. I've used the 24/2,8, just for fun, as I also have the equivalent RF lenses. If you really want to go wide, the Zenitar 16/2.8 full frame fisheye (about 180 deg FOV) will adapt to your FD, and also to the LTM. Scale focusing is a breeze, because the DOF is immense. I used one on a Canon F-1N during practically an entire trip to Disneyworld, and enjoyed myself. A bargain lens, comparable to the FSU 30/2.8 for MF, which is also a tremendous, and inexpensive, lens.
