The cost of vintage lenses after this video: 📈📈📈

Back in the day when film cameras used mechanical light meters - yes mechanical - and there were no internal electronics, the "bunny ear" tabs on the Nikon lens would connect to a prong sticking out of the camera body and would allow a mechanical link to the camera body when you changed aperture by turning the aperture dial. You could then still use the built in mechanical light meter even with different apertures.

I just adapted three Minolta lenses that I purchased in the early 80s, a 28 2.8, 50 1.8 and a 70-200 4. They all work great on my A7S3 and 5DMK4. Fun to play with and a great look.

Good Old Youtuber Matti is back! I still remember that old vid on vintage lenses! Man! Feels like the world is finally going back to normal again. Thanks for dropping this vid, Matti <3

Cameras like the BMPCC 4K really benefit from these vintage lenses for narrative shooting or achieving a classic look. Nikkor lenses in your favorite size are an excellent starting point.

It was cool seeing just how excited you were when you got the roller blades. I could tell it was a true passion of yours!

Happy to share some vintage lenses (& not vintage candy) all the way from Finland! Welcome to the analog club, Matti, ja kiitos paljon! (-:

I liked the 45mm f2. I was surprised the Helios 58mm f2 wasn’t on here though

[ABokeh]

man when I first started buying vintage lenses they were so much cheaper and plentiful

[tonikhoury]

I have a 28mm vertax
35mm zeiss

I love this type of content from big youtubers.
My only suggestion is to title such videos like: 5 vintage lenses that was affordable before I made this video.
Just kidding, but sometimes it's true though😆

I have one similar to the Minolta. I've got a Minolta MD 50mm f1.4 -- I love it

I know this was about lenses, but Matti you rocked the rollerblades! ~Cara 😊

I only have a Canon FD 50mm 1.8 but I love it. I use it on a GH5 with speedbooster+ adapter+ a 2x tele-crop and a ND filter. Then it is one glass on the speed-booster, 1 on the adapter for EF to FD, then 2 glass on the converter, then 2 pieces on the lens+ a nd-filter. Imagine how that is not accurate. I love it tho, looks so good, love vintage. 7 pieces of glass makes the image interesting to say the least lol

Been shoting quite a bit on the nikkor AI-S lenses, I built myself a set of the 24mm f2, 35mm f1, 4, 50 f1.4, 85mm f1.4 aswell as the most recent addition to the set, a 16mm fisheye. Shootin on them is really great! I can strongly recomend picking a series of lenses and the picking up a nice set, so that you can actually change focal length without affecting character too much...
