I have wanted one of these since it was announced, but $7K just to start a new camera system is not something to be taken lightly. I can’t justify it no matter how hard I try, so I finally broke down and rented one……HUGE mistake…..now I really want one.
I haven’t seen many reviews of the CFV50Cii being used attached to any old V system cameras so I rented the body only, and attached it to my 503 CW and played with it for a few days…..It was fun, and surprisingly good results on vintage glass. most shots were the 50/80mm and the elk refuge was shot on the 350mm. let me say that manually focussing that 350mm was a workout.
Lenses used:
-80mm ƒ2.8 CFE T*
-50mm ƒ4 FLE T*
-350mm ƒ5.6 Tele Tessar T*
