Well let me bore you a little more. Seems like the equipment talk is getting to some folks and sorry about that but new gear brings tests and i always share these test for the benefit of others to one save them money or spend it. LOL But really nothing worse than buying something unknown and feeling like you blew it. Been there done that and have the T-shirt with gold engraving on it.:ROTFL:
Anyway i got the Hassy 40mm today and my Fotodiox adapter showed up too , so off to the yard I go. First Jim mentioned he has gone through a couple of these and had infinity issues, i can see that but on the 40mm it seems fine but heck it is a 40mm lens so really hard to say and may not matter much. First off it does work just okay in AV mode but not great and need to play with that more. Now at 5.6, 8 and 11 it is extremely good and sharp to the corners at f4 it does have corner softness but it can be a advantage . Look at this one
