I guess I'm pretty lucky as B&W is my first love and most of my "Ladies" can be pretty good... if incentivised and motivated correctly.
But then all my "Ladies" are film era lenses, which like you, I definitely think they bring a different feel to the image.
Yes, yes I know that may well be due to poorer optical construction, materials used etc etc... but I say this before any debate gets started on the pros and cons of old against new glass. Modern PP also means most lenses can also produce imagery way above their grade too.
I'm happy with the results I get and to be honest... to date so are my clients, who certainly aren't aware of lens ages.
