Hi, I've read at few places on the net, that an old SMC 55/2 K is the best Pentax standard lens in terms of pure optical quality, regardless of maximum aperture and other factors. Is that true?
I currently have SMC 50/1.4 M and SMC 50/1.7 M should I try to find it, or should I go for SMC 50/1.4 A? Maximum aperture is not important for me at all, it is the f5.6 - f11 kind of performance that I'm after - but of course, it would be nice if it is also good wide open. I'm not after AF lens since they are very hard to find secondhand in my country and frankly, I don't like the manual focus feeling with them. What about 28mm lens? from some posts it seems that SMC 28/3.5 K is the best. I have the SMC 28/2.8 A and have an 3.5 K on offer for around 75$ should I go for it and ditch my old 2.8 A (well, I won't ditch it, I'll use it on my MZ-S on those rare occasions when I need autoeverything program)? thanks, Aleksandar _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
