Ok , to resurrect this thread
I have an older 350d Canon and a new Pentax KX, canon seems to be the best at adapting the older lenses as they accept a lot of the niche ones, so should I
a: sell the EOS350d kit lens and 50mm f1.8 , and the helios 40 and buy a FF canon camera?
b: Keep the helios and the Planar and just sell the 350d , the kit lens and my 50mm f1.8 AF , and steal some of the kids education fund and get a full frame EOS?
My other option is to trade the MMG for an MMJ or AEJ and some cash/goodies, and use that money in addition to the 350d sale to grab a newer body
Im open to any comments or criticisms, so let 'er rip

Helios 40 or Zeiss 85/1.4 T ?
Is that really a question? The answer is obvious. |
