To my shock, I found the Helios-44-2 full frame adapted onto the APS-C FujiFilm X-T50 was... quite good for street photography? I'm used to much wider lens setups but... I am really happy with how this dreary, rainy winter Sydney day looks through Helios using the Nostalgic Neg film simulation - and what the punched-in lens let me do from a distance.

It's also super wild that these are ~40mp images.

@vampiress yeah. you have convinced me. that's gonna be the first digital camera i ever buy. never saw the use in digital point-and-shoots, and the dslr's i was shown by people around me always felt lacking --both in physicality and character. you have shown me the way 🙇
