It starts to seem that my FF lenses will always have limitations on this MF sensor simply because the circle they project is smaller than the circle of the sensor.
These lenses have a circle of 52.7mm and the sensor one is 54.8mm.
Only in formats cut below 4x3 will they be able to work and even so, due to the examples published in the other post, there is always a drop of light and sharpness in the corners. This is accentuated at focal lengths of 50mm or less, so my Zeiss ZE 21mm, 35mm and probably 50mm will not perform very well. The Zeiss 85mm may work, but it will never be like a GF lens.
On top of that, if I have to reduce their aperture to get sharpness or DOF, the harmful phenomena will get worse.
It remains for me to try to understand, without being able to test, how the Canon 100mm f2.8 macro L and Canon MP-E 65mm 1x5 f / f2.8 will behave?
In fact, I have stayed at Canon for these two lenses.
I begin to consider changing the system in a somewhat radical way and forgetting Canon (body) once and for all. Sold my system would buy:
A GFX 50R
GF 120mm f / 4 Macro R LM OIS WR, for macro perhaps with the 18MM MCEX-18G WR tube
I also really liked these results of the 110mm with the tube and gain more light in the 110mm: https://jonasraskphotography.com/2018/04/12/moving-in-close-a-look-at-the-fujifilm-mcex-18g-and-mcex-45g/
(thank you for your opinion)
and
GF 32-64mm f / 4 R LM WR, for its versatility.
This covers 25mm to 50mm and a moderate 95mm tele that is macro. For many years I did everything with a 50mm and a macro.
I searched the thousands of images I have stored and in that order, these are the focal lengths that I have used most over the years:
100mm (macro)
50mm / 40mm
65mm (macro)
But as I work more with the 40mm-50mm, maybe the GF63mm or GF50mm would be better bets than the zoom in terms of image quality !? I appreciate your opinion here too.
Adapted lenses, it is a subject to be explored perhaps later, with old but medium format lenses to obtain character but without major compromises in the lens/sensor relationship.
Thank you very much. This forum is excellent!
I look forward to your words.
Best regards.
