Well...some experimentation with first....and unadjusted but cosmetically perfect J3. Mounted on a Nikon 1. Needed to use high speed electronic shutter for most exposures in daylight as lenses pretty much wide open.

These damn things are hard to focus wide open.....and figure out exposures correctly as all in manual.

Now the MS Optical Sonnetar , mostly at f1.1 I think pleasant and with some glow. Coma setting at red dot. Flowers, oranges, Thai basil. Pussy gato.

Just for fun....CAnon LTM 135 3.5. What a great lens. Flower arrangement....indoors. poor light.

Sorry....Canon coming up soon. I am really impressed by this canon.

Camera above.....Nikon 1 v1 10 mp. These ser interesting cams. Burst shooting 15 fps, decent evf, hi speed silent electronic shutter. 1 inch sensor very good at lower iso. The issue ,with fast 50s is the 2.7x crop. Of course m mount all manual. What it lacks are the fancy focusing AIDS that would have helped me. Blazing fast Af

Nikon 1 v3.....20 fps.... 20mp. Huge reach out 800mm with Nikon vr zoom. A very respectable birding outfit.
 
I had my eye on one last week, that certainly was affordable. But I wanted to wait until I'd saved up a bit more....now it's gone :(
Oh well, I hope another one showes up eventually.
 
The nokton seems nice and it's quite fast. I chose the sonnetar despite the price difference for reasons of size and flexibility. I wish I had an m9 to show how beautiful it can render.
