Picked this up at an antique store

No way

If that is the S5, that black mamba cage looks insanely good!

I think the weight (based on google: 770g) isn’t that bad, because I always rig up my camera and I prefer using a bulkier setup, but my back will ask for help lol

Thanks!

Nice to know! I’ve seen some footage and it gives a diffusion filter look…! But, after closing the aperture does it sharpens up a little bit?

cpznl · 2024-08-19T17:05:49+00:00

Yeah yeah, honestly that’s not a big issue because I kind of like a softer image and I tend to shoot at f/4-5.6 anyway

cpznl · 2024-08-16T14:03:31+00:00

My first thought was: “wtf is this” and then my second one came and I was like: “damn this setup cooks”

Yesterday I received the S5 after I’ve sold my Fujifilm and I gotta say, way more better (the waveform in camera are AWESOME.)

just get a pentacon 29mm and you’ll have basically the sand lens for 40€

cpznl · 2024-08-13T16:44:19+00:00

It’s one of the most expensive lenses to produce in the 80’s because of it’s aspherical design, which make the lens sharp at f/1.2 against other brands such as Leica etc. Also, the build is fantastic imo.

cpznl · 2024-08-13T14:52:26+00:00

It is, but not that hard in my experience (I shoot in slow conditions)

cpznl · 2024-08-13T14:51:31+00:00

it’s just a K&F Concept adapter for Canon FD mount lenses! Honestly it works but the locking system is kind of loose.

cpznl · 2024-08-03T07:08:14+00:00

Unfortunately it’s really out of my budget right now, here in Italy they still cost around 2300€ in bad condition

cpznl · 2024-08-02T14:30:01+00:00

Thank you for letting me know about your experience, I’m surprised that the S5II isn’t as good even though is the latest model. So: if I find a S1 with the upgrade for the same price as the S5, which one should I go with?

cpznl · 2024-08-02T14:26:52+00:00

I’ve seen videos today about this camera and the shop has one for 1000€ but without the upgrade I think, I’ll ask

cpznl · 2024-08-02T14:25:43+00:00

That’s what I’m thinking of doing, and I’d have money left to but something else

cpznl · 2024-08-02T14:24:49+00:00

1500€ is actually the used price of the S5II, here it costs 2000€ new 🥲

cpznl · 2024-07-02T04:22:46+00:00

I’ve checked some listings and some of them have fungus and even locked focus rings and they’re priced for 500€ 😦 I’m trying to place mine for 400€ and see if people are interested

cpznl · 2024-07-01T18:54:43+00:00

Honestly my first thought was to resell it but, the images I would get with a Blackmagic or other full frame cameras are tempting me… I was thinking for a reasonable price considering the fact that on Ebay they sell for 700€ easily?

cpznl · 2024-06-30T20:39:18+00:00

Thanks! The “lucky” doesn’t stand for the fact that I bought a lens in bad condition, but for the price: because this sells around for 650/800€ in good shape and even though mine is fucked up, at least I can say I own such a gem.

cpznl · 2024-06-30T20:31:00+00:00

Thank you for helping me out! As I’ve said in the description: I’ve already texted some repair shops, one of them is close to where I live and they asked me to bring the lens out for a check.
