What would you recommend and why?
>>
>>4393442 (OP)
Contax C/Y for that sweet Zeiss glass
M39/42 for ruski swirly bokeh
Nikon F is a fudd favourite, good luck having to deal with the pre-AI, AI, and AI-S compatibility nonsense
Minolta Rokkor, Olympus OM, Canon FD glass perform pretty much the same

You literally can't go wrong

Keep film and digital seperate, the two mediums are worlds apart. You're not gonna get ''the film look" by shooting Helios on a Snoy, you'll just get a lack of sharpness, contrast, and tons of abberations.

Sears 80-200 & Vivitar are A+++

Tokina 90mm f2.5 Macro in whichever mount should be in your set imo. It's really special.

I don't have a goatse territory rectum, but perhaps some smaller 16mm lenses would work.

Keep film and digital together, the two mediums complement eachother beautifully. You're gonna be able to keep the exact same shooting style while switching seamlessly between them, and as an added bonus you get 100% soul using old abacus calculated lens designs, made by people, for people, not computers.

I would say skip FD. They're nothing special and most of them are as expensive as their EF equivalents and worse in every way.

Maybe not, but you might still like the results.
