I enjoyed these! I might have to play around with this one. I use a lot of m42 (takumars, etc.) and other manual-focus lenses, and each has its own character. I like the quirks of each one. They add an element of fun and even surprise that is pretty underrated.

Yeah, is the kind of lens you need when having sharpness fatigue. lol

I am just testing the waters of manual focusing with this one, first time wowhoo! . But gonna use it mostly for video when no focus is needed and using the 3X mode to get the sweet center. For that it is really a great value.

If you decide to get one, Amazon now have then locally. I got mine from eBay but it took like 2 or 3 long weeks for delivery. They come already with the C to EF-M adapter and also a macro adapter.

There are many copies of the Bast@rd under different names, all the same.

SLR Magic once sold it too for $100 but pulled it after people found out it was the same Bast@rd in silk clothes lol
