Soligor 28mm f/2.8 Wide-Auto

This old Soligor 28mm f/2.8 Wide-Auto is a decent little lens for it’s day. It can produce some decent photos stopped down but it’s not worth getting too excited over.

Mamiya Sekor 35mm f/2.8

The Mamiya Sekor 35mm f/2.8 is a nice little M42 lens suitable for landscape photography. It is also very sharp stopped down. Having the M42 mount is really nice because it can mount on almost any Digital SLR with an adapter ring easily found on Ebay!

Leica R Summicron-R 50mm f/2.0 Leitz

Being extremely well built and with great ergonomics, this Leica R Summicron-R 50mm f/2.0 Leitz is a great lens. Plus it is built in Canada! Woo Hoo!! However I am not fully convinced it is worth the money they are fetching for today.
