I want to get the S007 and 1 70mm S lens( Thats all I need for now)
Is there ant major difference using the S lenses on the SL2S or SL body
For me the pluses are Size & weight and Money.
Thank you

The focusing of S lenses on the SL body is rather slow. The S lenses are great, but the SL lenses are more compact, faster, sharper and have a different look.

Main use case of the adapter is for S users to be able to use all their lenses if they enter the SL world by buying a body.

Also OOF and colours, contrast of S lenses are a bit different. Both are excellent choices and with the SL you will only use the sweet spot of the S lenses.

The SL lenses though are markedly sharper, so everything has pro's and con's.

Best
