I don't really have any experience with any of the 24-50mm, when I was in my lens collecting phase I eschewed, zooms for the most part. So while I have lots of classic lenses, I only have a very limited number of zooms and no 25-50 among them. I only know what I've read. However I have often been tempted by the smc F 24-50 expecially if it's anything like the F 35-70.

Correct me if I'm wrong, P.J. but I think you meant the M, A, and and
F 24-50mm f4.0 all sharing the same optical formula. That lens has
been called a "stack of primes" and is one that I expect the price to
rise on when the FF is shipping.

The widest rectilinear zoom with an aperture ring is the FA 20-35mm f4.0.
There's a 24-90mm FA 3.5~4.8 and an M, A, and and F 20-50mm f4.0 all sharing
the same optical formula.  Those are pretty much your choices for lenses
with aperture rings.  Except for the F 17-28mm fisheye zoom.

Hi all,

Can anyone tell me what wide angle Pentax zoom lenses have aperture rings?

Like something in the 16-40mm zone?

the 16-45mm f/4 would be ideal but no aperture ring!

Unless I get the dremel out....
