I could have posted this on some better suited camera forum but I'm not arsed to look/signed up for one and I'd rather talk to lads I already know here. I know for a fact that some of you are into photography so come out of the woodwork.
At the moment I own 3 cameras:
- SONY A7 II
- NIKON FM2 NEW Black (My favourite camera of all times)
- CANON A-1 (FD)
While for the past number of years I was only really shooting digital I recently realised that in the past few months about 80% of the time when I go out I take with me either the 35mm NIKON (Made in 1983 or 1984) or the CANON (1978) rather than the digital SONY. Even if I do take the SONY I will generally pair it up with either the NIKON or CANON manual focus lenses.
The film cameras I have I only had one lens for each. NIKKOR 50mm f1.4 for the FM2 and CANON FD 55mm f1.2 S.S.C. for the A-1
This week I decided to expand on my minor hobby. And for the first time ever I made a wish list that didn't contain any vinyl. A lens wish list.
I'm searching now for some vintage lenses in a good nick to expand and upgrade what I already have. Last week I posted ALL the lenses which I don't use or want to upgrade on ebay:

I just bought the NIKKOR Ai-s 50mm f1.2 lens in supposedly near mint condition (arriving tomorrow) to replace my f1.4 which is ending in less than a day.
The picture below is my LENS WISH LIST. Shit marked with a black dot is stuff I already bought. I will try to complete the vintage lenses section first. It shouldn't take me too long...
The next purchase will most likely be CANON FD 50mm f1.2 L to replace the 55mm one I'm selling.
