Looking for a good and fast 50 mm, as I already have a 35mm.

U need f/0.95? Go Noc or SLR Magic.

From my experience, any of these 3 will wow you. All below SGD 300.

1. OM 50f1.4 MC with serial number greater than 1.1 million.
2. Pentax A 50f1.4
3. Nikon 50f1.4 ais

 

[Atarandas]

F2.8 is not the 'fast' I have in mind and by the way I am already using it.

More like 1.4 or 0.95 hehe

You can get the Rokkor 58mm 1.4 for less than a 100 bucks cheers

you can call the shops to ask , due to high demand, they will probably qoute you retail price, but hopefully you can still get the pwp for handgrip and batteries

Thanks !

I presume they are all manual focus?

What kind of adaptor should I use in the case of Nikon 50/1.4 etc

 

[shioks76]

for pwp dont forget the la ea4 adapter. You might not have any a mount lenses now, but can save quite a bit if willing to go for older minolta glass.
