Where can you find these lenses? I cant seem to find them any where ---------- Post added 07-28-15 at 03:41 PM ----------
Are there any specific lenses that you would recommend? And where can you buy them? Any good lenses under $50 usd? Im looking for a good prime 50mm equivalent so something between 8mm and 12mm. I am also looking for a good lens that can cover higher focal length maybe something starting around the 15mm focal length and goes up to any number past 28mm. So far I only have the standard zoom lens which covers 5-15mm. And Im looking for vintage lenses under $50 usd. Thanks ---------- Post added 07-28-15 at 03:50 PM ----------
Oh and any suggestions on a budget zoom lens that is par focal with a constant aperture? Any zoom lens between 5mm to 50mm would be fine, but the lower the focal length the better. Im mostly using my camera for film making.

Hello,
Im new to the forums and I had a few questions. I own a Pentax q7 and it came with the standard 5mm-15mm zoom lens, lens 02. This lens is pretty nice, but I wanted to start using vintage lenses, specifically some nice cheap vintage 50mm lenses. The only problem with using these lenses is the crop factor for the Pentax q7, Its a whopping 4.7x crop factor. A 50mm lens on a Pentax q7 would be equivalent to a 235mm lens. Any tips on making a 50mm lens look like a 10mm lens. I was thinking about a focal reducer, but I just can't find any. I also have no clue on what kind I need either.
If a focal reducer is too complicated, do you have any suggestions on any nice vintage lenses for the Pentax q7? Something with a focal length between 8mm and 12mm so I can get that nice natural 50mm look. and a prime lens is preferable.
Thanks
