Re: What's your fastest lens ?

Re: What's your fastest lens ?
Having sold of all my old stuff, I am down to 3 lenses, from 10-200mm, the fastest being F3.5 (CZ16-80).
Re: What's your fastest lens ?
Are there any A-mount lenses faster than f1.4? I don't recall any. Of course, in other mounts, including the old Minolta MF mount there were.dynax800si wrote:We talk about A-mount lenses only

The poll is alive (Allow re-voting) so I left this possibility for faster than f/1.4 lens if something new appear.bakubo wrote: Are there any A-mount lenses faster than f1.4? I don't recall any.

Re: What's your fastest lens ?
Let's see, a a pin-hole body cap registers as an f/1 in the EXIF data, but then, it'a actually a pretty slow lens...

Re: What's your fastest lens ?
It looks like the Minolta AF 50mm f/1.7 is a popular lens on the forum - or am I making a rash assumption?
Nex 5, Nex 6 (IR), A7M2, A99 and a bunch of lenses.

Re: What's your fastest lens ?
I voted f1.7 ala 50mm obviously. I have this MD mount also
I think it is a popular lens and has been for some time.

Re: What's your fastest lens ?
I believe you have the signs inverted. It should be "< f/1.4" and "> f/4" AFAIK.dynax800si wrote:thanks, i'm not sure how should be < f/1.4 or > f/1.4 ?
Re: What's your fastest lens ?
Two people have said they have A-mount lenses that are faster than f1.4. What are they? For example, I know of some f1.2 lenses that are not A-mount, but don't recall any A-mount.

Re: What's your fastest lens ?
It is pure speculation on my part, but perhaps they have copies of the 50mm f:1.2 or 58mm f:1.2 lenses with Pete Ganzel's MD to A-mount conversion ?bakubo wrote:Two people have said they have A-mount lenses that are faster than f1.4.
