anthony_brookes5 Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Is there a digital camera that will take a a chrome 50mm Zeiss Planar using an adaptor.? I have taken some of my best pictures with this heavy lens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johncox Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 <p>There are great adaptors on e-Bay to mount this lens on all mirrorless cameras. FYI there will be a magnification factor.<br> A search of "contax RF to sony nex" will turn up results for NEX. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_Es Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 <p>Check out Amadeo and Cameraquest. Get a Leica M and you can have it full frame.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Lazzari Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 <p>Is this a quiz?<br> The only "<em><strong>1960 Planar</strong></em>" units are the one's made for the Contarex <strong>SLR</strong> cameras. (They actually began production in 1961)</p> <p>If what I say is correct, then you'll be looking for the <strong>Contarex</strong> to: NEX / Fuji / Olympus / Panasonic / CanonEOS adapters.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fred_c1 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 <p>Gus is right. There were no 50mm Planars made for the Contax in 1960.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
