Hi Brent,
I use to own this very nice short telophoto. I bought it for the same
reasons you are considering purchasing it; for portrait use. I liked
it; good color, good bokeh, and very easy to handle. I shot some very
nice portraits with it. However, my only complaint with it was that
it was not as sharp as I would have liked it to be.
If you look at the BOA's Gallery: Pentax Lenses Review Web Site:
http://home.att.net/~alnem/html/pentax_primes.html#100,
you can see some of the reviews on this focal length. I did and that
is why I purchased the SMC-K 105mm f/2.8 (somewhat rare) and sold my
SMC-M 100mm f/2.8.
Nonetheless, the SMC-M 100mm f/2.8 is an excellent performer and can
be found at a good price.
Good Luck!
