    I love how combining a 35+ year old prime lens with a modern camera - X-T20 with a Canon 50mm FD - create fairly pleasurable results. Oh, and an FD 25mm extension tube - I'm no pro by any means but I enjoy when I get good results, and if not - I try again. Always the persistent monkey.

    • True @Cont - have you tried that sweet sharpness with an extension tube - priced between $15-25, creates wonders.helloeatbreathedrive
