Glassless FD to EF adapter

With so many lenses to pick from, why go to the trouble of adapting an FD lens?

I agree, and there are a slough of better lenses in the easily adapted M42 mount and others.

If steroids are illegal for athletes, should PS be illegal for models?

Maybe it's just play. I just always liked that lens and wonder how well it might work up close. My AE-1 and my 4x5 are the only film cameras I have left so the 50 is not getting used.

I agree some of those screw mount Pentax lenses are interesting. I have had Pentax in 35mm (MXs and an LX) as well as a 67. The lenses were always nice. I don't think I ever found a dog.

Canon 7d MkII, Canon 50D, Pentax 67, Canon 30D, Baker Custom 4x5, Canon EF 24-104mm f4, Canon EF 100mm f2.8 Macro, Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5, 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di VC
