Originally posted by Miserere Lowell, it makes sense to do what you're doing. I have accumulated far too much crap, I mean, lenses and am now having a tough time selling them. Most were bought as part of a lot that included a good lens I wanted to keep, but still, I have been guilty of buying some lenses "because they're only $30". Buy 10 of those lenses and you've spent $300, and that's a good down payment on some better, faster glass.
Lithos, you're da man!
One man's junk is another man's treasure.
What have you got that you're trying to unload?
Originally posted by Mike Cash You already have a Spotmatic F?
No, but a KX basically the same but in K mount. (I also have a ricoh XR2s and a PZ-1) and don't really need another film body. I decided long ago that I am not a collector but a user.
I prefer to have K mount just to get a little more functionality with my DSLRs, but will look at M42 if it is something I don't already have and would likle
So far I only have one M42 mount lens, an SMC Tak 35mm F2, it fit nicely between my SMC-P 50mm F1.4 and my Adaptall 24mm F2.5.
If, at some point I want a spotmatic F and see one with a lens attached that I want, I might go for it, but I need something in terms of the glass too as that is my greater interest, at least for now.
