Hello Joe I only know/own the A 2.8 and the K 2.5. The K version was my first 135mm - unfortunately I sold it with an MX years ago. I finally managed to get one at ebay (USA) sometime ago. The K version is better. Sharper at full aperture. The A version is still very good, but the K is excellent. Amazing sharpness for portraits.

I have heard this before, and yet the F version of the lens is nearly impossible to find! I have the FA and A versions, and they are beautiful with wonderful results. Where does the F lens have an edge (probably not in focusing feel)? Joe > >The M 1.4 is - AFAI recall - excellent.
