While cell phones and cheap gear are quite capable of capturing decent images, there is still a need for having a creative eye and knowledge of lighting. It's not the camera that you hire out or pay for. As a hobby, I still play around with vintage lenses on digital bodies. On these pages are the few gems that I've found to be of compelling interest to share, (good and bad). That said, its still glass mounted in metal tubes and therfore, many of these gems are still useful today. |

Note 3: I am not affiliated with any vendor.
Note 4: Due to age and use (or abuse) it's impossible to quarantee that your lens will function as good or as poorly as mine. Good research involves consulting several relieable sources, in order to draw a general conclusion before making a purchase.
Note 3: My purpose here is to have fun using old lenses, (and it's not about film vs. digital).
Note 4: Yes. I still shoot film occassionally for personal and artistic reasons.
Note 5: The tool that does the job is the right one to use. I will use a vintage lens professionally on occasion.
