NEX-7 with APO-Elmarit-R 180mm . . . coppersmith barbet ready to pounce!
CV 35mm f/1.2 II . . . Mr. Kobayashi must be laughing his a$$ off at how $hitty the fast Canikon 35's look in comparison. This is a super piece of glass.

Yep true you need to either sell lot of gears or you have budget for it. I too was looking at these leica apo macro lenses and its just way oit of reach...
tntrue said:No more budget . . . I lost my a$$ when I decided to ditch a-mount. Yup, had to dump off 4...5...6 lenses for each APO.
That's a HUGE negative for a-mount compared to nikon . . . piss-poor resale value on alpha gear, even the ZA glass; whereas Nikon stuff holds its value. BUT--NEX makes up for it, can stick any kind of glass on the front!
R stuff is quickly going through the roof. Most recent copy of the 280mm f/4 APO I saw was going for almost US7k, and just a few months ago they were going for around 4k.
Anyway, R glass is still more reasonable than M, most of which is way beyond my reach.
R glasses r picking up d value in anticipation of d new M body next year. Leica strategy to make a R to M mount adapter is making way for a comeback of these R glasses. Make sense as R telephotos r really awesome.
yeah seen some rise in the R lenses prices lately crap I still have not gotten a good copy of cron 35 before the price went up :-(
That's what pushed me to the CV 35mm . . . most copies of the R 35mm f/2 I see on the market are 30+ years old, therefore more haze-prone, as well as IMO overpriced. 50mm f/2's still look reasonable, though.
I'd better get outside and shoot some so I can post a photo later to make up for being so OT here... :embrass:
albertri said:yeah same here been away for couple of days due to training not much time to shoot will try to shoot some if I wont be in SITEX lurking around checking the promo girls i mean the promos lolz
