  1. To get in focus with manual focusing lens of moving subjects/persons/aminals you prefocus at a point where you expect them to pass and just wait for the right moment 🙂 Just a little tip from an old scool photographer 😉

  2. When using manual focus lenses I switch to black and white. With focus peaking in red against black and white… nails focus. Of course the raw is still in color/colour for postprocessing.

  3. I love you baby! Manual lenses are harder to focus, but if you've grown up with all manual cameras, it's no issue. If you can get some manual Minolta lenses, try them out. They are very close to Leica quality.

  4. I love vintage lenses. I shoot with 2 Yashica lenses and 2 Ricoh lenses(m42 screw mount) and I use them on my Sony a6000. Absolutely love the way they look. The old lenses have such a unique look to them and I love it. Also after a while manual focusing all the time becomes easy. I actually can get a lot of shots in focus. You do have to slow the pace a little though. Can't just go around firing shots without even looking at them. Takes some time

  5. Funfact: almost a year ago, i bought a canon fd 28mm f. 2.8 for about 60€. A few weeks ago i've seen this exact lens for 200€… I mean i only use this lens but i'm starting to think about selling it 😂

  6. If you want to manually focus there is another way to do it. Set the focus distance you want then move towards or away from subject to acquire focus!.

    Or use a hyperfocal distance calculator & open that aperture!
