You'd also need to add in either an adapter for mirrorless, or a conversion if you'd want to use it on a Canon dslr.
Anyway, if it is an F/1.2, go for it, at that price . Provided of course you will use it .
I have actually bought a couple of MF lenses in the past, and adapted, and ended up never really using them beyond a couple of test shots. Sold them on since, but won't do that again. The only MF lenses I will use are macro lenses and tilt-shift lenses, basically lenses which allow for relaxed and/or thoughtful shooting .
Kind regards, Wim
