right, but none of them are marked "smc pentax-m" like all the other true "m" series lenses are. jco

They probably mean the second series 50/1.2 with the M style lettering. You're right, it's not an M lens but the lettering around the front element was changed to match that of the M series lenses. The only other difference I could see was that the coating on the later lens is noticeably bluer than the original. Of course that could just be a quirk of the two lenses that I own.

It was too big to qualify as an "M" size lens I guess. jco -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Hamilton Sent: Saturday, June 23, 2007 7:02 PM To: pdml@pdml.net Subject: re: value of K50/1.2 ?
