Well, times change. Technology changes even at faster rate... You may be
up for a pleasant surprise. But it is of course with usual disclaimer
that your eyesight is certainly different than mine.
I don't think that an adapter would be the best approach, mainly
because I own only two "digital" lenses (and if I'm to buy new ones it
would be of this sort). Thus no aperture ring. Besides that I'm not
sure that manual focus is that accurate on these lenses...
You're wrong, sir. My adapter has a ring that controls the aperture in
continuous manner. I could do any of these:
1. Set the lens aperture at A. Turn the ring - open the aperture, focus,
close the aperture by the ring looking in the EVF until the picture
there looks just right in terms of DOF and shutter speed/ISO.
2. Turn the ring all the way so that the aperture is closed. Set the
lens aperture to any value I want (for lenses that can do it). Take a
picture. This is how I shoot most of the time.
3. Any combination of the 1 and 2 above.
I admit - I only have one such lens DA 21/3.2 that I will soon be
offering for sale. I haven't tried to shoot as described in p.1 above,
but it is at least technically possible.
