Hello
I am pleased that after a few days there have been some comments here. Thanks to everyone and especially to Ilia who got me on to the subject.
Since I started the thread I have done a fair bit of research for myself and also had further contact with Ilia.
A few things from Ilia... firstly, zooms no. Secondly, under 25mm we are looking at heavy vignetting.
OK... I found a very interesting flickriver on C mount with Micro 4/3s, 5000 odd photos... I've been through the whole thing! Some very interesting shots and as Ilia pointed out earlier here, many of the c-mounts do lend themselves very nicely to more artisctic types of shots. The swirling bokeh that some produce may not be to everyone's taste, but it has it's place.
Back to flicriver: after about 2000 shots something become strangely aparent to me. Without even checking out exifs or more information, there were two lenses that I could identify immediately. One is the Angenieux 75mm f0.95 and the other, surprise, surprise, is the Angenieux 25mm f0.95. Shots from these lenses just seem to jump out of the screen and say "Angenieux"... incredible.
I will die/kill/sell my wife/rob banks/blackmail/sell my mother/anything for these two lenses.
Life is a dream.
Yep, the BEST of these lenses get very pricey so I have decided to do a local hunt inj garage sales and fairs as well as contacting anyone I can think of who has connections with the film world to see what I can turn up.
Once again, thanks for your comments and your shots
Joe
