I don't entirely remember what I tested on the RP. I think it was because I was adapting so much and trying to learn the ins and outs of the system. I adapted the EF 40mm for sure, and then the M42 Takumar and Industar 50-2 lenses. Not too impressed with my Industar 50-2 but the JPEGs on this camera are just brilliant. Very little rainbowing if any, and the highlights are actually a touch more accurate on the JPEG than the RAW. Power of full frame I suppose, and/or better light collection. So that makes me feel much more comfortable about shooting and proceeding (specifically -- more post-processing the photos I really want, not just the general set). Quite a bit later I tried my dad's FD 50mm and the 35-105mm zoom, and both looked great. Spanish class at 4, totally distracted by my RP, futzed with the battery grip and a couple battery swaps later it worked! The biggest change was absolutely the electronic viewfinder, as it was bigger and much brighter than my optical viewfinder on my SL1, but also seemed a little more "flat". Color rendition also leaned a little cool which was hilarious since Canon color science normally leans a touch warm. I'll have to check the diopter adjustment tomorrow. After Spanish class I took my brother to iTea and he got a drink for himself and our mom, and an order of popcorn chicken. I didn't order anything since I had that lemon tea earlier. When we got home I had a few bites of the popcorn chicken over a video about the siege of Leningrad -- awful time for them all, but they were made of steel. Had a small dinner later, veggie pork soup, since I was still full. Dad came to ask me about SIM hacking and personal banking and I much obliged, and he checked out my new RP and commented on the T90 (it was/is his after all). It turns out he bought the body first for $600 or so in the 80s, and then the lens a bit later. The zoom lens was a perpetual borrow from his brother / my uncle. Quickly I adapted the FD zoom on my RP for him to see -- it was quite funny to see, that big old lens on this stocky squat camera, but it worked -- and I zoomed in on my brother in the midst of a game, focused with focus peaking, red, snapped a shot, showed my dad, he was impressed with the sharpness and quality. Really quite nice. Added a few cards to the slipbox and did laundry and I am pooped, I tell you, out of it and off to sleep. 12:24am now.
