Yes, the 28/2.0 is a super lens. Congratulations JCO. i've looked for one, but haven't found it. I have a K 28/3.5, which is very good, but the fast 2.0 would be a great addition to my kit. I too appreciate the quality of the K lenses. My K85/1.8 and K 135/2.5 are among my most valued lenses. A pro friend of mine who shoots Hassy MF digital and canon full frame with zeiss lenses tried my K85/1.8 on my D. He was absolutely enamored. "A little truck of a lens" is how he described it. He was amazed at the image quality, even at just six megapixels.. Paul On Dec 22, 2006, at 2:20 PM, John Whittingham wrote:
