I agree with this quotation, but do not forget we are talking about reliable
tests or not. My own expenrience is that Pentax 50mm f::1.7 is better than
Minolta or Canon one (I used to own all 3) But I always prefer the Pentax
one.
For the 85mm, I tested it in order to help my friends. By my own experience,
I already found it marvellous. So what do you want me to do ? I am still
stay in Pentax system because it is my favorite one. And there will be no
test, reliable enought to show why ! This is only my own story, my truth.
Nevertheless, I also consider some Pentax items as not worthy (such as the
MZ-S, the 300mm FA f/:3.5)
