Sigma 70mm is very good
it still operates smoothly
the midfield is a good compromise position
compact
sharp
and fairly fast

fuji cropped sensor - disappointingly soft wide open

you lose electronic contact information
the high resolution images on smug mug
you lose the ability for the camera to tell when you are focusing
not made to the same tight tolerances
the focus ring not only has a tab but is also
glow on the highlights is blinding
This is frustrating when shooting moving targets
Vignetting is fairly severe wide open
Their vintage lenses can take a beating for sure
magenta tint to the right of the stars
FM2N Nikon V1 Nikon Z 50mm
the lens has a massively bulbous focus surface
the price tag is a bit high
slowed down my posting at dpreview
the color is not as nice as your process
each artists pencil draws differently
contrast loss from transmission loss degrades image quality severely
not suited for color or the reproduction will not be optimized
the adapter is only half as thick as the usual old SLR adapters
SC version really not that great for color photography
Colors are a bit dull and flat sometimes
for a corner-to-corner tack-sharp lens
still attached
it is a tad front heavy
