This is a nearly 50 year old lens on my A7iii. My dad gave me his old Konika & while the camera might not be useable anymore, the lens definitely was. Someone had already made a file for a 3D printed adapter, downloaded it and any hour later I was shooting with it at 55mm 1.8. It’s manual focus, manual aperture control but really great bokeh and sharp once dialed in. samples and Video coming to my channel soon. You can find these lenses on eBay for $20-30 and adapters all day long for this and many other combinations. #konika #sony #a7iiiThis is a nearly 50 year old lens on my A7iii.

Fuji Comes out with a brand new but overpriced lens in late 2018. Michael does a review pointing out why it is overpriced. Critics attack- how dare Michael say $2,000 for an APSC wide angle lens is overpriced?! Name calling ensues. 6 days later the price drops $500. You are welcome Fuji Nation- I am fighting for you! I didn’t choose the thug life, it chose me – it’s probably just a promotion tho so buy it while you can if you were interested – tons of great deals on many fuji lenses lol #fuji #fujifilmFuji Comes out with a brand new but overpriced lens in late 2018.
