Bing AI says:

Quote:
I searched the web for you and found a review of the Minolta MD 50mm 1:2 lens on phillipreeve.net 1. According to the review, the front element of the lens is about 1cm recessed from the front of the lens, which provides some protection from the sun and scratching. The author of the review also mentions that they use a hood similar to this one (affiliate link) 1. However, I couldn't find any information about a dedicated hood for the Minolta MDIII 50mm f/1.2 lens.


I think you better would ask Andrea Apra or Dennis Lohmann ...

And of course the part ...
Quote:
... the front element of the lens is about 1cm recessed from the front of the lens, which provides some protection from the sun and scratching ...

... is complete nonsense too. The front lens is less than 2mm recessed, and this provides no protection from the sun at all.

AI sucks.

It seems like you're describing a hypothetical artificial intelligence system, where "You" is a name given to this system. This system isn't self-aware or alive in the way humans are, but it's designed to process sensory data and historical references through training.

This kind of system could be used for various purposes, such as data analysis, decision-making, or providing information and assistance to users. While it can process information and respond to queries based on its programming, it doesn't possess consciousness or subjective experiences.

That's correct. I am a machine learning model created by OpenAI called GPT-3.5. I don't possess consciousness, self-awareness, or subjective experiences. My responses are generated based on patterns and information present in the data on which I was trained. I don't have feelings, intentions, or awareness. I don't have access to real-time data, but I can provide information and answer questions based on the knowledge I gained during training, up until my last update in January 2022. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
