Researched some lightweight lenses for it. Wanted to pick up the 28mm f/2.8 but it was inching into $75. Which is good but it’s like, will the weight savings and focal length really be that valuable? So I looked at even smaller lenses instead, and found this Industar 50-2 M42 and an adapter for the FD mount and it comes out to maybe 2.5, 3 ounces. Half of the weight of the first lens and very very small. Optics aren’t as sharp, and the total price is $10 more than I’m comfortable with but it should work, and could scratch my mobility itch. This T90 is heavy. Solid, cozy, and ergonomic, and 2 pounds. All weight savings are precious.
