It’s getting on for nearly a year now since I started regularly using vintage prime lenses, choosing to shoot with them rather than my modern Fujifilm alternatives, mostly zooms. I don’t own a vintage zoom lens. I’m not sure why that is other than I’ve enjoyed using my new prime lens collection and just not been minded to even research vintage zooms as an option. However there is one issue that’s become apparent with these old prime lenses since I bought my full frame Sony A7 MK3 earlier year.
My initial idea for buying the Sony camera was to use it exclusively with the vintage lenses, allowing me to use them at their original focal lengths. I also really like using full frame cameras. I’d missed that experience since changing from the Canon 5D full frame cameras I had been using prior to switching to crop sensor Fujifilm cameras and lenses.
