Rare findings: Fastest (buyable) camera lens in the world for sale on eBay.

[shoplink 45410 ebay][/shoplink]

It happens only few times in the year to find this very rare lens. And it happens even less times to find it in top conditions, with all caps and already a T-mount adapter included. It’s the Canon 50mm f/0.75 you can find right now on [shoplink 45410 ebay]eBay US (Click here)[/shoplink]. Unlike some other f/.075 lenses like Carl Zeiss (f/0.7 used by Stanley Kubrick), [shoplink 45411 ebay]De Oude Delft[/shoplink], [shoplink 45412 ebay]Rayxar[/shoplink] this is a proper camera lens (the others are X-ray lenses or in case of the one used by Kubrick a limited edition NASA lens). The lens is 2/3 stops faster than the Voigtlander 0.95 MFT lens series. This is the fastest lens you can use on your Micro Four Thirds camera!

I found some image samples taken on Canon cameras on Flickr, Rakuten. But no one seems to have ever used this lens on a MFT camera…

Here is a code to get $100 off on E-M1 and E-Pm2 cameras ($299 for E-PM2 double lens kit only!).

And this sounds weird: But the GF2 with 14mm pancake at Amazon (Click here) or Adorama (Click here) costs $25 less than the sole 14mm pancake!

[shoplink 45218 ebay][/shoplink]

The new Mitakon Canon EF to MFT Lens Turbo adapter can be ordered on [shoplink 45218 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]. It basically does the same job of a Metabones Speed Booster but costs much less (and will not match the Metabones quality).

UPDATE: Personal View has a long topic about these alternative adapter. It’s interesting to read it to learn about their strength and weaknesses.
