Another interesting collection Moose,
Thanks!
I like the Velvet 28 (at least with that subject).
If I were looking to make a great photo of the subject, which I was not, I don't think any one quite does it. I would
likely combine two or three. Here's a, very different, example that I like a lot.

I presume these shots are on a full frame body?
Yup. If you get Ctein's newsletter, the one that just came out features his reasons for using µ4/3, and not FF. I agree
100%, for general photography.I have prints of his, including 16x20, made with 12 MP µ4/3 sensors, that are spectacular.
I also have 16x20s from my µ4/3 bodies that I think don't give anything away to FF.
But for work with vintage and ALT lenses, I use Sony FF bodies. A lot of their
character may be lost on a small sensor.
I started before CaNikon came out with their mirrorless systems. Which of this trio is better for general photography, I
have no idea. For my purposes, I'm sure there's no difference, and I have a LOT of E-mount adapters. 😁
The Soft Focus lenses work well on the smaller sensor, and I expect the Velvets would, too. The Sweets and Twists would
lose much of their character.
Any LBs that I buy now are in µ4/3 mount and I put a thin, inexpensive µ4/3=>E adapter on them. Unless, of course,
there's a deal. I got my Velvet 56 cheap in Nikon F mount.
