Which is exactly why I upgraded my perfectly functional 1DIV to the 1DX3.
Yeah, I'll use adapters (air only, no glass) on my manual focus vintage glass out of necessity, otherwise, not so much. One of the fun things I discovered during the pandemic is some really great vintage glass. (Super Takumars / Pentacon / Yashinon / Helios)
The manual focus forces me to slow down and think more about what I am doing. I also got into buying nasty lenses with fungus cheap, tearing them apart and restoring them to as new condition.
The character of the photo's taken with these lenses is astounding and can also inspire my creative side, which is difficult.
