I tried to send this last night, only to discover that I had been dropped off the list. It was a quiet time here. I guess I have to direct-deposit the monthly stipend to Doug :-) Anyways, here it goes again... With all the talk of 'jumping ship' if there is no DSLR from Pentax, and the 'look' of Canon and Nikon lenses, I present the following image in two forms: http://cesar_abdul.homestead.com/files/Pentax/flare.jpg and http://cesar_abdul.homestead.com/files/Pentax/flaret.jpg Flare.jpg is the large version of flaret.jpg. This shot was taken near the French Market in New Orleans, Louisiana this past weekend with my sister. It was a perfect situation for flare. As a matter of fact it was almost too harsh to look at with your eyes. The Limited 31/1.8 was used. I cannot recall if I metered with my LX on the building or used my Sekonic L-358 in incident mode. Anyway I often push my Pentax lenses in this fashion. It makes me the 'loyal' Pentaxian that I am. I have a Nikon F3 with a small assortment of lenses and from experience none of the Nikon lenses can handle flare like a Pentax. I have not experienced Canon lenses, only seen some shots taken by friends. I get the same flare control from all my Pentax lenses not just the Limiteds. Just thought I would toss my hat into the ring, César Panama City, Florida
