Just bought this and the adapter so I can use it with my Mamiya M645 camera. Super fast for medium format and it makes you wonder why lens manufacturers don't take risks and make unique designs like this anymore? Medium Format still lacks equivalents to lenses that 35mm and smaller formats have, regardless of which MF system you invest in. Medium format still lacks the following:
>superfast wide-angles and portrait lenses
>fast-aperture macro lenses
>fast supertelephotos
>wide-angle and telephoto macro lenses
>lenses longer than 600mm
Where are the 55mm or even 35mm f/2.0s? Where are the 400mm f/2.8s? where are the f/2.8 macro lenses? where are the f/4 supertelephotos? I know it would be expensive but it's not like ALL the R&D has to go in to the camera. There's no point in a good camera system if the lens selection is limited and boring
