Anyone try c-mount lens on micro 4/3? I just ordered an e-pl1 and was thinking of getting some, they are super cheap online! Anyways just picked this up today



It's a Zeiss Jena 35mm 2.8, thought it'd be good to use on the micro 4/3, need to get it cleaned up though, shop recommendations anyone?

There's a reason why Carl Zeiss Jena lenses are cheap - they're shitty. I have an 80mm & 50mm Jena lenses that someone gave to me, and they suck. Interesting on a 35mm or 120mm film body though, but on a DSLR, the sensors outresolve the lenses big time.

Just picked up the leica 60mm 2.8 macro, I think this will be a promising lens, but... I'm still waiting for an R mount adaptor

They fetch quite a bit on ebay and slr lens review praised it.

My e-pl1 should be arriving tomorrow excited, although I think I will have a lot of adaptor on adaptor action >.<

So I've been testing the Carl Zeiss Jena 80mm & 50mm lenses that were given to me, and I'll take back what I said about Jena lenses...at least for the 50mm. It's actually not too bad.

Here's some shots of The Carl Zeiss Jena 50mm f4 on my 5DmkII with a Carl Zeiss Pentacon to Nikon adapter and a Nikon to Canon EOS adapter. On the back is a Cinevate Cyclops DSLR Viewfinder. It allows two eyed viewing and the screen can also be viewed at a distance, you don't need to have your eyes pressed against the viewfinder.
