Or at least acceptable? I do print big occasionally.
Of the legacy lenses I have had the only one that was sharp wide open wa the Canon FD 50/1.4. I prefer my Rokkor 50/1.4 for various reasons but it's not particularly sharp wide open...stop it down to f2 and I'd becomes wicked sharp.
Based on this thread, one can *assume* that in the days before digital cameras, people never shot wide open for large prints....![]()
Exactly what I suspected... If I ever itch to get another nifty again, this one is on my list.
I read somewhere that the way legacy glass works on film and digital sensors are very different and a lens that worked well on film may or may not work as well on digital. Seems reasonable...besides I would think we all understand the subtext of the questions was "on the NEX".
