It’s such a great little all metal, all manual lens.</p> <p>And yet it’s not a modern ultra sharp lens at the same time. You can see some weird little flares. It’s got real personality.</p> <p>This is the most elegant Rolls Royce but, to be honest they were never the most beautiful cars. You only have to compare it to a Hispano-Suiza from the same era. The modern RR bricks are perfect for demonstrating that you’re an oaf with no passion for anything but power.</p>
