The 5D compatibility list here http://www.panoramaplanet.de/comp/ says the Porst 58 1.4 is likely not to work (at least at infinity focus) when mounted on the 5D.
It also seems from this list that the manufacturer can be identified from the type of ring grip.

M42 version is at least based on optical design from Tomioka, possibly manufactured by Tomioka.

I mean maybe these aren't at par with Zeiss, Leika, etc, but they are very characteristic, especially the bokeh wide open, and it's easy to create wild pictorial effects with them. Considering they usually sell pretty cheap it's a sin not owning one  |
I still can't afford a Zeiss Planar 1.4/50 and probably won't be able to this year - I was tracking one up until I went away, when I left the bidding was at €65.00; arrived back home today and took a look...€201.00 with an hour to go, and all the additional bids were from the same guy  
Talk about the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing!!! |

Hi!
I'm brand new to all of this (read: forums, manual focus lenses, and even my own camera)
and I'm confused. I bought a lovely lens which says:
Auto Chinon 1:1.4/55 Tomioka Japan
And it's great. Faboulous even. BUT:
It hits the mirror on my 5D! It wasn't suppose to do that. It hits when focusing at distances longer than 10m. I have a 5D Mark 2, is that why or should I use a different eos-m42 adapter? does anyone know?
I love the lens and it's a keeper but it freaks me out when it hits the mirror!
Second question: How "bad" is it that it hits the mirror? It's still usable and all I mean, using Live View the mirror goes up and then I can use it at infinity.. |

Hi Jon and welcome to the forum
Seems unusual that the Tomioka would hit the mirror on the 5D, but probably not impossible! I have the non-Tomioka branded version of this lens too, and that doesn't hit the 5D mirror either...
I speak of both the 'classic' 5D and the MkII - having used these lenses on both bodies recently.
My work-around for any mirror-hitting lenses was to use the Live View function when I had the MkII loaner - worry-free photography and no mirror damage

Thank for your fast reply!
Just after I posted I found a thread here about m42 lense on the 5D2, guess I'm gonna go over there and read it thoroughly.
But, it COULD be the adapter then maybe? Well, in this case Live View is a lifesaver, it's not very often I use the lens att infinity anyway. But still! It bothers me |
