Did anyone else have a chance to view Jupiter tonight? I tried to get some pictures, but an 18-55mm not-overly-sharp kit lens doesn't work out too well for that. Also, cheap filters can be annoying, but they're cheap, so I can't complain too much.
Sort of in the same frame, any photography people have luck mounting M42 lenses on Canon DSLR's? If so, any brands of glass to specifically look for? Its documented on the Internet that it can be done and adapters are sold, so I'm thinking I may do that to pick up a few different primes. I think I can live without AF, and I've read good things about Takumar, as well as seen some beautiful photos, so I'm hoping I'll be able to find a few lenses in my price range of $20 or less, including shipping.
