The only known Contarex mount to have been made was a contarex to Olympus mount. I'd love to buy one and an Olympus SLR as I have an 18mm Distagon and a 80-240 Vario Schnieder lens from the 60's that I'm itching to use. Last edited by S7000 : 24th of July 2009 (Fri) at 20:17. |

I just picked up a Vivitar MC 28mm/F2 in a Nikon AI mount at a garage sale...only problem is that the aperture is stuck wide open...still, it may be quite suitable for just that...shooting wide open in the dark...we'll see....maybe I'll try taking the mount off and see if I can get the aperture to work...
First shots into bright light prove problematic having no choice but to shoot wide open, but in the shade...not bad...shot on a Canon 40D ![]() ![]() 100% crop from sRAW file...with USM @ 300/.3/0 ![]()

manually focusing wide angle lenses is very hard for me for some reason...

because the detail is spread over a larger area making it relatively smaller and harder to discern. If you have liveview, zooming in 5x on your main subject can help. Otherwise, yeah, it is challenging. You may wish to rely on the distance scale.

The 135mm is very nice. I had a mint/boxed one that I really enjoyed using.
