Carol, You probably heard about Contax G1/G2 Rangefinder camera series. They used special G-mount with autofocus. Contax G1/G2 RF mount has quite short flange focal distance of 29 mm so it could not be used with any DSLR :( For Hologon especially back focal distance is extremlly short (6.8mm) so It is told that Hologon isn't compatibile with current digital sensor. I could use any Contax-G/Nex adapter (I choose Kippon one, which is most pricely but I didn't wanted to get any bad surprises), but to save my sensor I had to crop a little protective horns from rear side of lens. I may send You some final photos of Hologon's rear cut off, if You wish :)
It is trully amazing with geometry, sharpness..only magenta colour shift (at corners) and vignetting is a little bit problem.
Thanks again for Your attention and comment, best regards, WZ.
Thanks for the link, Steve, it looks like some interesting reading. I sure hope the funding doesn't get cut off, the parks are one of the most important things the U.S. govt has done and the research programs are essential to keeping the environment safe for both the native species and the visitors.
Steve, we were there at the end of June and the first week of July and the snow was still very tall, it was definitely jacket weather at Logan Pass. Thanks for the comment. Debbie
Beautiful. I have a picture that my daughter sent me of her standing in the road in Logans Pass and the snow must be 10 feet above her head and that was in June. Steve
