@ozzelot it's okay, that stage only lasts the first 20 years or so of owning your first DSLR.
it resets with each new body though...
@evilstevie i hope it doesn't compound when you're getting old bodies for peanuts, cause if so then i'm probably set for life
@ozzelot make sure they are the same lens-mount and never buy a converter. m42 to A-mount opened up yet more wallet :'(
@evilstevie too late
here's a pentacon 50mm f/1.8, a helios...
technically, i did not *buy* the adapter. i printed it. but i do intend to buy one for build quality alone, perchance with a focus confirmation chip as well.
@evilstevie it shall be found.
