Thanks, yea that one was a bit of a lucky one.
I actually have a Techart, a Metabones and a $30 Kipon clone. Honestly my favorite is probably the cheap clone. It can be notch at spots but hasn’t ruined a shot yet. Metabones is much smoother but it’s bulk bothers me. Other users swear by the Ulata brand, but it’s only available in titanium, and I didn’t spring for Black lenses to use a Titanium adapter! The Techart works well with the 28 & 45, I don’t think my 90 seats right on it and sometimes drops out, but it’s the least used of the three anyway so doesn’t bother me too much. Flexible spot isn’t as reliable as I’d like, but found that if I use wide area and face detect it’s very good. Center Spot is also very good if you use focus and recompose, it’s just when you move flexible spot away from center it starts hunting. Fortunately I only really care about AF when shooting my kids, otherwise I’ll use the manual ring. If you’re interested in the Metabones PM me, I can pass along a great deal.

It's a 45, not a 50 so you totally should!

And then I remember I have 3 50's already, so I'd only be doing it for the 90, which is admittedly looking like the best bang-for-buck tele-prime for landscapes. You're killing me with these shots, the first one is unreal.
Which adapter do you happen to use? It's maybe the only thing keeping me away...
