Hi,
Im not very into still photography, but I am a videographer and I am about to buy an adaptor that bolts onto the front of my camera that allows me to use 35mm film lenses. Its nice because the footage looks like film, doesn't look all clinical and digital has a really nice DoF and film like atmosphere to the images etc etc.
Anyway, the adaptor has a Canon FD mount and so I am after some no thrills FD mount lenses. They must be totaly manual, no gizmos or electronics. I have also been told to get the widest apature I can, idealy nothing tighter than F3
I was rather hoping that someone switched to dSLR afew years ago and had afew of these knocking around at home that I could buy off them?
If anyone can help, I would be very greatful.
Thanks very much,
Pete.
