Steven, how did you mount that 25mm ZF on a 5D? I've a 58mm for Nikon mount which I can then use on my newly acquired 5d. Keep posted.

This is really a beautiful image of beautiful product.

Unfortunately nobody has posted Pentax 645 or 76 lense (at I did not see any). My favorite all time landscape camera has been Pentax 645Nii with 45mm or the 35mm. Other lenses were not shabby either.

Any F mount lens can be easily mounted to EOS with a simple F-EOS adapter.

It's such a shame that Contax didn't survive to make a digital version of that body.

They did launch the N-Digital (in 2001) which is the digital version of the N1 film body:

Unfortunately their very ambitious foray into FF digital was a monumental disaster - so bad that Contax/Zeiss is gun-shy about putting out another DSLR, which is real sad.

I'm about to make a similar image with 24mm Oly. How do you find 28/2.8; which adapter and what hood is that?

The 28 looks really nice - nothing spectacular, but nice in the corners. I see a little CA but the lens is quite sharp. I bought three Oly lens along with an OM2- S Program recently. I got the adapter from oeccamera on eBay.

Oh, and the cool metal lens hood is made by Pentax for the 35mm Takumars: found one in great shape. Its the same filter size (49mm) so it shares duty on my recently purchased Super Takumar 50/1.4.

I found that I have 7 different lenses around the 50mm focal length for the 35mm format, so I am starting the thin out my holdings. First one to go (sadly) is this one, pictured here in the first of my listing images:

$25 lens + $19 adapter + $6 cap = $50 amazing deal:
