I have been wanting a halfway decent 50mm lens for my digital Canon EOS - better than the kit lens at least. Being short of funds, I am thinking of buying a adapter to fit the Color-Skopar lens from my Voigtlander Bessamatic to the Canon.
Does anyone have any experience of this? And is it likely to be a good combination. I am impressed with the Color-Skopar on my old Voigtlanders but that does not necessarily equate to good on a modern digital that is not designed for it. (I do not mind the lack of automatic focus or exposure as most of my cameras do not have either).

It is something I've looked at, but not got round to doing. In the end I opted for the Canon 50mm f1.8 which was as cheap as the better adapters. How the results compare with, say, using the Canon f1.2 rangefinder lens with an adapter, I'm not sure. I think probably the Topcon f1.4 would give the best results of all the lenses I have - as long as the adapter is good quality.
