I've been spending quite a bit of time trying to figure out which adapter to get for my G1 so I can use SLR lenses, so I figured I'd throw it out there for some feedback. I have no existing lenses aside from the kit lens that came with my G1, so I'd be starting from scratch. Here's what I'm looking for in general:
1. A reasonably wide assortment of lenses
2. Reasonably priced lenses (not generally more than $500 each)
3. Good quality lenses
4. A reasonable assortment of accessories (extension tubes, bellows, etc.)
Personally I'm leaning toward Canon FD/FL lenses, but I'm not sure, for example, what kind of lenses in the FD/FL mount there might be for macro work, which is something I want to get into more. I've read about Sigma lenses for macro work, but I'm not sure which adapter they'd require, and what other sort of lenses there are for use on the G1.
Any thoughts are appreciated.
Cheers!
