55mm Backup Lenses
Fujinon 56mm f/1.2 X-mount lens - mounted on Fuji X-Pro1 mirrorless digital body.
Nikkor 55mm f/3.5 macro Nikon F mount lens - used primarily on Nikon film and digital cameras but can be adapted for use on Fuji X digital body.
Fujinon 55mm f/1.8 M42 screw-mount lens - used primarily on Fuji 35mm screw-mount cameras but can be adapted for use on Fuji X digital body.
If my equipment gets dropped, damaged, lost, or stolen during a wedding, I need to have a duplicate. For the 56mm lens, I do not necessarily need to have an exact duplicate. A functional duplicate will do. My two 55mm lenses serve as functional duplicates.
I have only had to use my backup once. My camera and lens succumbed to condensation when I moved with the wedding party from outdoors where we had been shooting to indoors where we were going to do more shooting. Thank goodness, I had left my backup camera and lens indoors where it was already climatized.
