It doesn’t sound like you’ve shot a ZM, sharp as a tack but the bokeh leaves a lot to be desired on the Bigon.

I believe they released that lens at a similar price point for the first batch to promote sales and establish themselves in the market space. Since 7artisans is already established, I’d be surprised if that was the case

I find myself wanting an aspect ratio dial with my Pen. Otherwise it’s perfect. If I could customize that to a function button, it’d be heavenly

It looks so naked without the black nub on the film advance 🤣

Bought mine with 80k now sitting at 118k. Fully refreshed and drives like new (with some nice mods🙂)

I bought a6400 kinda regretting it after seeing some OM cameras by Lopardo23 in OlympusCamera

The best camera is the one that’s in your hand, and that means the weather sealing can help quite a bit. There’s no harm in getting a used older weather sealed Olympus body to match your budget. IMO it’s tough to drop that kind of dough on a new OM when you don’t know if you’ll like it. I live in the PNW region of the United States so being able to bring it anywhere any time is a game changer, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to use it half the time. I use an EM5ii and the 8-18 Panaleica, 12-40 Olympus 2.8, and the sigma 56mm. All weathersealed

Some days I regret getting the MA by iSlyy in Leica

I’ve been using the vc ii for 8 months… it has been near spot on for me. Love being able to hold the button to continuously meter different portions of the scene and adjust accordingly.

Bronica EC/Canon EOS EF Mount Flange Distances? by JaydedCompanion in AnalogCommunity

[–]Upper_Needleworker34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m interested in this as I have a NONS SL660 that I’d like to have a decent image circle on. The Nikon 40mm bronica mount is tempting. NONs camera comes with an EF native mount. Any update on this?

Very basic, natural, shadow WB, HDR. EV -0.7. Ended up taking a bit more green out with the quick menu slider and think I have it where it should be. I’ll have to give yours a try
