I usually take it with a pinch of salt when people mention older lenses being really sharp and stacking against newer ones well, but this Micro Nikkor really is ridiculously good!

That cheap EF-RF adapter has been an incredible boon for the RF system even though I lament it missing all the Sigma and Tamron options Sony have.
