So a friend of mine is getting into photography and for whatever reason she's pretty fixed on getting a 5D. Mainly because they are really cheap now (I'm almost tempted to get one) but also as with many people it's full frame or no frame. I said if she wants to go that route and doesn't want to spend a ton on expensive lenses just yet that I had a collection of old M42 lenses that she could use (from my m4/3 collection) if she didn't mind manual focusing. But I have no idea if it is a good choice. I've never even seen the original 5D in person, never shot with it, have no idea if M42 lenses and the 5D are a good team together. What do you guys think? Has the 5D aged gracefully?
