Well-known
Since adapting emMa8 to take my Sonnar and various Jupiters , including the Jonnar 3 which I love , I have also used a screw fit J8 on the Panasonic G1 [ goes past infinity ] and my Rokkor 50mms .
I also enjoy my clean Summitar , but worry about collapsibles with the G1 .
The Fed is ' better ' than my Elmar though - it simply sparkles with colour .
In every case I prefer the Sonnar derivitives and vintage lenses - I also like the astounding Helios , but ... it seems much more akin to the Rokkors .
I have no problem with the Minolta glass - and have many more focal lengths for the G1 ... but could contentedly shoot with the Zeiss clones for everything ... even my little Fed [ Tessar ? ] collapsible has an atmosphere which modern lenses lack ...
Kit zooms are easy and perfectly acceptable - the L1 Leica zoom is awesome - but ,
I wonder if there is an anology twix Vinyl and CD in music ? Or valves and transistors ?
It may not be accurate , but it has soul ?
