![]() ![]() They have a lot of great things going for them, the top two being excellent IQ and a low pricepoint. I have been an avid user of especially the 55mm f/1.7 and the 58mm f/1.4 on my X-series cameras. Going back to the post at hand – I have been a huge fan of the Minolta Rokkor lenses for a long time. My Helios 44m-4 article from 4 years ago keep at the top of Google searches and keeps getting traffic in staggering numbers, so I know that I’m not the only one with a fascination for this combination of “old and new” GFX50s – Rokkor MC 58mm f/1.4 shot at f/1.4 – no crop – no vignette correction I have written countless articles on vintage glass here at the blog (just search for “vintage” and you’ll see what I mean). So, just like with the X-Pro1 almost 5 years ago, the prospect of adapting vintage glass in front of a Fujifilm camera was the absolute selling point for me. But when I found out that you could mount your 35mm lenses to achieve a completely different look to your images, I was completely sold. At this point I had been testing the GFX during two different time periods, going from: “I will never buy this” to: “I think I might find this useful”. ![]()
