I agree! They are the masters of bokeh. I couldn't get used to the manual focus for a while. Sony helps here :)

I never used any Sony cameras in my life but I own some old cameras of Fuji, Nikon, and Pentax, I collected most of their old manual lenses. Manual focus is the pain in my ass when we need a nice photo to capture some objects in short times lol. So I only use MF lenses for still objects and with suitable length of time to change the ISO, shuttering time and trying many photos to make sure they have enough light for a perfect photos :D
Oh my.. you have show the collection one of these days. My brother has quite a few of the old film cameras and old lenses too. I sometimes get to use them (lenses, not cameras).
Sony has a cool way to show in the viewer if the object is in focus and where the focus is. So that helps A LOT with the manual ones.
I will but most of my favorite Pentax lenses and Fuji ones were left in Michigan with my brother when I traveled to Europe. It is too expensive for shipping whole my collection from the U.S to my place now. I only have my Nikon with one old lense right now. So maybe the end of this year my brother will fly here to visit me and bring all of my things to me. I will post them to show you as soon as I have them in my hands ;)
@ewkaw these old lenses I have in hands right now (Paragon, tokins, and nikkor)
I don't know Paragon... will have to do some googling later on :)
Which one do you normally shoot with?
My favorite Nikkor MF 1:1.4. Tomorrow I will post about some test photos which each lense I have right now. :) but Paragon zoom 135mm MF is a very tough lense because a bit shaking and you never get any correct focus 😂😂
