That was so trippy at 7:01 suddenly having that miniature effect. My first film camera was an Olympus OM-1 and a 50mm F1.8. I love that camera and lens system.

Haha yeah. The tilt function is a lot of fun. Seriously considering loading up some film in the OM-1 and using these lenses with the original body. Thanks for watching!

Great video. Interesting idea with the tilt adapter. I've using a Micro-Nikkor 55mm f3.5 Ai with my X-T2. It works great. Super sharp and built like a tank. I used to shoot news back in the Stone Age and used Nikons. There lots of good Nikon Ai and AiS manual focus lenses that have great glass and rock-solid build. I might take a peek at some OM lenses at my local used camera shop. At least with old lenses, I can play around and now empty my wallet. Ha ha ha!

I enjoy using vintage lenses on my Sony A6000 and A7ii. My collection is growing, and now I have about 40 lenses. Recently, I bought the Pronto AF adapter (TechArt PRO clone). With this adapter, it turns all of my vintages lenses into AF lenses. I still use MF, but I need AF when I don't have time to tune the focus. I think TechArt makes one for Fujifilm camera(s). You might want to check that out. Great video, btw.

Roy love the channel. You got me to try vintage lens. Just picked up a Vivitar 28mm 2.8. I see you use a Fuji xt1. Is the xt1 worth buying in 2020? Or am I wrong in thinking the xt2 with more mega pixel is a better camera? Is the xt1 weather sealed?
@roycruzphoto

Thanks, Mark! There are definitely advantages in getting the X-T2, namely better autofocus, operation speed, and the 24 megapixel sensor. I think around 24 MP is the current sweet spot for crop sensors, but 16 MP is no slouch either. If you're primarily shooting vintage lenses, the X-T1 is still a solid choice in 2020. But if you want to build up your AF lens collection as well, it might be worth getting an X-T2 or newer. Yes, the X-T1 is weather sealed. The lens has to be as well to take full advantage of that. Thanks for watching!

I kind of taught myself manual focus from my mirror less cam because I accidentally turned off auto-focus and didn't know how to put it back on at the time. It was a random camera I just bought. I know how to turn it on know but, used to manual now. Lol

Thank you for watching! Both systems you mentioned have some great lenses. I recommend checking out forums or videos for the standout lenses that are getting good feedback from video shooters.

You’ll need OM-Fuji X tilt adapters for these particular lenses. For tilt effect on M42, I’d recommend the Helios and maybe the Takumar 28mm. Thanks for watching!

Beginner question. When using a manual vintage lens, my aperture reads as 0 and the metering isn’t very accurate. The exposure bar on the left is at 0 and the display is bright, but when I take a photo, it comes out very dark. Just wondering if I am missing a certain setting to have proper exposure.

Be sure your focus selector switch on the front of the camera is set to M
@roycruzphoto

The aperture will always read as 0 or 1.0, as there is no electronic communication between the lens and body. For the exposure problem, try the lens at it's widest aperture and try different metering modes. Maybe also enable "Preview exposure in manual mode" if it's not already enabled. Also check to see if the aperture blades of the lens are opening and closing properly as you turn the ring to make sure the lens itself has no mechanical issues. Hope this helps. Thanks for your question.
