Yeah, for $1200 you might be able to grab a user Canon R body and a 50 1.8. Can't go wrong with that.

when I first got my R this was also the lens I had (adapted EF)

the R is an underrated camera imo. yeah it’s been superseded but it’s still capable of incredible results (just check out my photos :smugmrgw:)


I’d one day love to upgrade but the upgrade path isn’t quite obvious. it seems like it fits somewhere between an R5 and R6, and the R6II seems like an excellent camera for a lot of reasons but it’s a good chunk of change for ultimately what wouldn’t be a huge step up. it’s not really like I’m all of a sudden gonna be taking better photos if I got it, altho better autofocus, dual slots, and better low light performance would be welcome

Had another look at the 135mm lens and it does look like the threads are messed up.

Blasted through a roll of cheap Fujifilm 400 with the Canon just to see if it works at all, and nothing great came out of it. Probably didn't help that I went through the whole roll before I realized that the rangefinder is out of whack.





voted 5 coz of 135
