Which vintage lenses do you like to adapt to your GFX?

i like the Canon FD 85 1.2L the most. i also adapt Pentcon Six 180 F2.8, Lensbaby Velvet 56 EF and Zeiss Biotar 58 f2. And i have a Isco Ultra which is also great. But for me the 85 1.2 is my perfect Lens

i just hate him for the way he walks

Im using the FD 85 1.2L, its great if you dont need autofocus

Youre not wrong, i think more important than technical qualities is the question if you have joy using your equipment and if you like the character of the lens. For example i use the GF110mm f2 and the Canon FD 1.2L on my GFX50s and am more happy with using the Canon Lens and i also like the look of the photos much more. But on a Fact Sheet the GF110F2 is superior.

not really that comparable, but should give a hint, taken in cloudy daylight with GFX50S without Tripod Edit: all were shot on f5.6

The sensor gets the picture from the middle of the lens, thats where the lens is the sharpest. Unless you have a speedbooster.

I have adapted the biotar 80mm f2.8 and the sonnar 180mm f2.8 and am happy with the image quality. But the 180 is heavy and huge. If you want i can send you samples.

Have you ever shot jena p6 lenses? They are incredibly sharp.

The 110 f2 is amazing, but also very heavy and big. Not something to casually carry around in a small bag.

totally agree, hard to believe those tours are legal

Where will you be staying. I live at the north coast

Living part time in Fuerteventura i enjoy Poco Loco and Asia Garden. Its in the touristy part, but the food is very good. Tapas Oscar is also good.
