It's a right time to collect vintage C-mount lenses

It's a right time to collect vintage C-mount lenses for upcoming Scarlet 2/3 interchangeable lens mount.

I just started with Schneider-Kreuznach Cinegon 10mm f/1.8 and Angenieux 12-120mm (Bolex) Zoom T2.2 Type 10x12 B.

I know that Olympus EP2 is not a right camera for C lenses but still waiting for Panasonic GH2 that will hopefully ship in Europe before Christmas.

Btw, Olympus EP2 is amazing camera that deliver the best color image from all 4/3 cameras and beyond it.

Also Red New Color Science should learn a bit something out of that Olympus image color.

Keep in mind that a famous Olympus color matrix and small size were main reason that this little camera was partly involved in shooting of "Secretariat".
