It is one of my bad habits to keep all my old gear. Most of the time it is
just sleeping on a shelf in the cellar. With the G1 and the wealth of
available adapters I digged out some old lenses that I had not used for
years. I was in for some good surprises. Trying out these old treasures and
finding a good use for them is very stimulating.

Cheers
Peter
