I will second the comments Andre made concerning the K 35/3.5. It is one hell of a sharp lens with practically no flare at all. I have comtemplated replacing it with one of Pentax's f2 versions, but I can't really justify two 35's and I'm NOT getting rid of my K 35/3.5. It is the lightest of their 35's, albeit slightly larger than the M/A types. The slow speed is somewhat compensated for by the fact that it is still amazingly sharp at full aperture.
I find myself using this lens more and more for the fine detail and overall brilliance of the pictures it produces. It is well worth the $95 USD that I paid for it in like new condition. Admittedly I use my K 24/2.8 far more often because I like its angle of view and brighter image in the finder, but the K 35/3.5 ~is~ indeed in an a special optical class above most other lenses I've used. -Jonathan- __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
