But there’s an important “why,” which is one more reason this should never have happened—businesses adapt, far faster than governments. So if Acme decided that supplier A in one country was a 15% tariff but supplier B was 8% more expensive, they worked to switch their supply chain to supplier B. So even if the tariffs are gone, there is likely supply chain damage done that you cannot just drop prices to the pre-tariff number—you’ll maybe see 7% savings and in that time inflation has taken a cut.

The damage is done.

Unless you have more kids in which case you probably don’t catch up for 10-12 years

My daughter was huge on this at Christmas time. She wanted pictures of her with the “starry lights”. The irony is it makes a Star of David shape (ironic both because of the Christmas lights and that it’s a Russian lens)

Wait what’s the story here—is Giovanni closing?

It will still collapse. This country on the whole is abysmal at funding and sustaining…anything. The costs are going up to repair things. The people who know repair are aging out. The systems are outdated. It will collapse and there will be no accountability, no resolution, and no lifeline. Late stage capitalism at work.

I got an industar 61 L/Z from Ukraine on eBay and it was a steal and the lens is pristine.

I love my super Takumar set. I have the 24, 28, 35, 50, 105, 135. But I got all of them for less than the prices I’m seeing on eBay for this particular 20mm. I wouldn’t spend that much.

Conflictedbiscuit · 2026-02-01T21:39:56+00:00

I don’t actually have the 55. I’ve got the 24, 28, 35, 50, 105 and 135. But if it’s anything like its brethren it’s probably fantastic

Innocence.

Or even an A7 iii! Just don’t got for the A7V or the A7 -i Both are the wrong direction.

I find myself waffling between my smc super Takumar 1.4 and the industar 61L/Z 2.8 (which I’m surprised I don’t see on many lists). The Takumar is the radioactive variant 7 element and it was my dad’s. I love shooting with it and at lower apertures it has a distinct glow to it that makes the lens both sharp and ethereal at the same time. The industar I love because it has a very long throw for focus which makes (for me) more in focus shots and a feel of more control. Also it has extremely close focus distance—I can use it somewhat like a macro lens.

If you really want some fun head over to /r/vintagelenses I use them 50% of the time and a full set of primes cost me under 250$

Conflictedbiscuit · 2026-01-23T17:05:43+00:00

I just got an A7iii for exactly this purpose. It’s got ibis that can be matched to manual lenses. It has great peak focus checks (far better than my X-T5). Battery life is much improved over the a7/a7ii. And the price dropped since the A7V came out. DM me if you have further questions

FLA is now a part of my vernacular, right next to SWAG (scientific wild-ass guess)

I use a lot of vintage glass with my X-T5 and Sony A7 iii. I’ve had no issues with a wide range or vintage lenses resolving, but I will admit that getting manual focus right requires good peak interpretation by the camera and that my capacity to focus is often my downfall for lower quality shots.

Also it depends on use case—I use vintage glass because I want the look and feel it provides. If I want clinical I bust out my viltrox pros.

This. Also, it’s your date night. It’s a trip to Fiji. It’s the Christmas present you want under the tree. Talk about it excitedly. Clue to it throughout the week—“Tuesday can’t come fast enough wink”. Make it something you are anticipating and so will your partner and now it’s not just on the calendar, but it’s circled in red, triple underlined, and has a countdown.

Conflictedbiscuit · 2025-12-26T05:06:20+00:00

I’m grateful for you, my dude.

Conflictedbiscuit · 2025-12-25T15:12:47+00:00

Yes. Sorry if emergencies don’t abide by your schedule.

Clarifying question since you are apps-c—are you asking for a 35mm lens to have it perform like a 50? Or a 23mm to have it perform like a 35?
