The A50mm f/1.2 is currently manufactured, but without looking, I don't know if Pentax made an M50mm f/1.2. Who knows?
Wait a minute, I have a small, 60-page brochure on "Asahi Pentax Lenses and Accessories" by Pentax, published in 1971 I believe, indicating they did indeed make a "SMC Pentax 50mm f/1.2" 7 elements, 6 groups. The search goes on... <g> keith whaley gfen wrote: > > On Wed, 20 Nov 2002, Cotty wrote: > > for digi, and when the Pentax DSLR is released, the latest and greatest > > portrait lens will become the A50 f/1.2 - get one before the price jumps. > > However, only for a while - when the full frame chips become the norm, > > the 85mm f/1.4s will rule again... > > Wow... good call, and one I never thought of..
