Re: My first in-depth review of a lens published
You may be right, Jostein. It is just that in principle I should have been able to provide full size JPGs and I don't have those for my film images shot with FA 20. And words without images won't do much good. Also it seems to me, that PentaxForums is somewhat digital-centristic, so to say.
