In my quest for the smallest 50mm lens possible, this is my latest acquisition. It makes the auto tak look like a monster. The minolta 50 looks like a tele in comparison.

I love that little beast ! (bought it for 5 euro NEW/MIND condition!)



And he is very sharp to,really amazing what comes out of it !! (see my picture in pure portraits)
Also the aperture ring can turn free, without the traditional stops, works very well.

I wish. I keep looking and looking but I never see one. Tickets to Kiev are on the pricy side right now. Ebay is cheating.
