You've just answered it ;-)

No, I was wondering what it's like with the MFT adapter. Obvs the sensor won't 
reach the corners so I imagine - as with all 'full frame' lenses on MFT - it 
will generally be a better performer wide open. Given that the lens is 
optically better than the clutch of Pentax K 50s in various guises, I wonder 
how it would behave as a portrait lens on MFT.

Re: Pentax Week on DPR

I began digital with a K110D which had quite a noisy sensor & later 
found the K7 much the same. Mind you, they both did quite well at low 
ISO. My K5 is a vast improvement.

It most definitely was. The K20D was, as we say in German, the

Boy, was I glad when this Samsung episode was over at last and I got my

I can still identify my photos taken with the K20D and the K-7 just by

Re: Pentax Week on DPR

[P. J. Alling]

I'm pretty sure that I disagree with their list.  The K1000 yes, but 
really it's frame was pretty much the same as any Spotmatic, (especially 
the F who's electronics are actually interchangeable), just with a K 
mount, (as were the KM, the KX having an improved faster reacting SPD 
metering system).


The 6x7, there's nothing else really nothing else like it, but that's 
sort of the problem, it's influence on the industry was fairly low.


The K10D was and is still great, but the K20D got twice the Buzz, I 
remember articles about the K20D being Pentax's big turnaround...


The LX was and is a great camera system, but it's influence was also 
pretty limited on the industry.


The Auto 110 also had very limited influence, or should we say no influence.

They ignore the firsts, or mention them simply in passing, (which 
weren't always firsts, but sometimes seconds, abet in much higher 
quality longer lasting camera bodies), that did have lasting influence 
on the industry.


The first, (actually second, but few remember the first), use of a 
Pentaprism in an SLR.


The first announced, (though, second released), TTL metering system.

The first released AF SLR.

The first Aperture Priority auto exposure SLR.

The MZ-D, which was never released, but could have been the first FF 
35mm DSLR, (overshadowed by the Kodak and Canon FF cameras that were 
released).  Which might have been the best decision, based on what 
happened to the Contex DSLR using the same sensor...

Re: Pentax lenses I want

[P. J. Alling]

The problem with small light autofocus lenses is once you put the 
autofocus motor in the lens it's no longer small.  They can be smallish, 
but I would hate to see a 43mm limited with a built in AF motor.  It 
would have to be much bigger.

Dear Mark, you would have noticed that in the Film SLR days ALL Pentax

And these Lenses were as large or as small as the DA Lenses on the

So why NOT design all Lenses as Full Frame?
This would have kept design and manufacturing efforts and costs down.
Now please don't start searching for a Technical reason why this is
detrimental to Photography.
I just responded to your thread "I want a full-frame version of this lens".
As for Lenses I am a zoom lover - covered between 10 & 300 mm as I am

longer lenses. No GAS.
Now all my Zooms are brutally sharp.
How do I assure this?? Simple: I will go on buying lenses till I find

I do have some Prime Lenses because of their f1.2 or f1.4 Apertures

Re: Pentax lenses I want

[Stanley Halpin]

Juan, welcome back! I have been in BA a few times in the last couple of years, 
kept thinking I needed to track you down and ask for restaurant recommendations 
down there…

And thanks for starting this discussion. Long story short, over the last 20 
years I have bought and sold many lenses. Gradually got to the point where I 
probably don’t need any more and am not actively looking. 
For my K-1 I have the big 3 DFA lenses. (And yes, they are big.) 15-30/2.8, 
24-70/2.8, and 70-200/2.8  

So, a funny thing happened on my last trip to Europe. I left all of those 
lenses home. I took an A-20/2.8,  FA43/1.9, and DFA 100 macro WR.
And I also took the new GR III, APS-C with a fixed lens (28mm effective 
length). Sometimes I used the 43mm, sometimes I used the 20mm e.g. when I was 
inside a church or wanted wider landscapes, but most of my K-1 shots were with 
the 100mm, and the GR III got extensive use for wider shots. Essentially a 
two-camera two-lens system. I did sometimes miss having my zooms, but mostly 
was pleased I had saved the weight and fuss of carrying multiple heavy lenses.

A few decades ago, in the late ‘70s, early ‘80s, I did extensive rock climbing 
and mountaineering. I had a similar two-camera, two-lens system then: a 
Nikkormat with 100mm lens and a MInox G with a zone-focus fixed focal length 
lens (28mm? 35mm?). The Minox was carried on my gear sling, I could be holding 
on the rock with left hand, with the right hand pull up the camera, flip open 
the cover with my thumb, set the focus, match-needle the exposure, compose and 
shoot, flip the cover closed, and be on my way all in just a very few seconds. 
The Ricoh GR III comes the closest to a totally functional 
everything-just-right of any camera I have used since those MInox cameras. I 
just wish it were WR so it would be usable in the rain and had a better coating 
on the screen so that it was usable in bright sun.

Actually, I am at the point where I really need to let go some of those lenses 
in the closet. I love the almost sensual feel of the 77/1.8 but I seldom take 
it anywhere nor use it if I do have it. It is not WR, and when using AF it does 
not allow the manual fine tuning of focus that more modern Pentax lenses have. 
Same is true of the 43mm. Next time I will just take my 50/1.2 for mid-range 
shots. And so I see no reason to keep the 43mm.

Back to the original “lens lust” theme… I had a 400/4.0 (?5.6?) which I bought 
for an Alaska trip in 2016. I was glad to have it, used it often, but too long 
for me to handhold, and other than Alaska there are too few times I shoot 
wildlife when using a tripod. So I sold it after the trip. (Bought a DA* 
300/4.0 instead, which I don’t think I will ever let go.) I would buy another 
400mm if/when I go back to Alaska. 

And then one other, by far the best lens ever, the DA*200/4.0 Macro. I had one, 
I wasn’t using it, I sold it to a list member who could take far more advantage 
of that gem than I could. But don’t think of looking for one, such a search is 
akin to a search for the Golden Fleece or the Holy Grail; you may hear rumors 
of sightings, but you will not find one.

Re: Pentax lenses I want

[Pat Temmerman]

Have the DA16-50 and it was my 2nd favorite lens after the 43mm Ltd (or 
maybe most favorite after being introduced to Scottish weather.) We were 
away for a weekend to one of the western islands, decent weather. 
Walking around all day, 16-50 was just fine. Back to the hotel for 
lunch, back out and suddenly found that I had a 20-50. No drops, no 
jolts. Lens just decided that I no longer needed the range from 16 to 
20.  Found some references on this list to this problem, googled it, 
checked service cost and decided that 20-50 wasn't so bad consider the 
weagher sealing. Later decided that it was just too damn big and heavy - 
and obvious - for walking around towns and cities, so I bought a 2nd 
hand DA21 from Japan. Love it. Have since  bought the 28-105WP and tend 
to go with that. Will still drag out the 16 (20) - 50 if I'm feeling a 
bit land-scapey in inclement weather.

I already have a Sigma 17-70 f2.8~4.5 which covers the range, and suits my

Plus the Tamron 17-50mm is a wee bit better optically by all accounts and much 
closer to my budget.

I wouldn't turn my nose up at the Pentax if I could get it for the same price 
as the Tamron, since it probably beats it like a rag doll as far as build 
quality is concerned.

zooms that cover this focal length, plus I haven't been shooting with the
KP much anyway.

M20/4: I don't know why I want this one, I just do. I really like the M
lenses. I do have the DA21 Limited for APS, and the Sigma 20/2.8 for APS on
the Sony, and an awesome Zeiss 21/2.8 for full frame on Leicas and Sonys.
And that's without counting the zooms that cover that both on APS and full
frame: I have a 17-70/4, a 12-24/4, and a Canon 17-40/4 that covers full
frame with fast AF via an adaptor on the Sony.

M40/2.8: I just always wanted that little pancake lens. Don't need it, as I
have tons of both 35mm and 50mm lenses, plus a really nice Konica Hexanon
40mm/1.8 that is perfect for the A7ii.

DA20-40: This seems like the perfect street lens for the KP. Been wanting
it since it came out, but never pulled the trigger. Again, I already have
other lenses covering this range.

K85/1.8: I had this lens. It fell from my motorcycle jacket the day I was
getting my istD back in 2004. I never saw it again. It's not a FL I
regularly use so it's hard to justify. I had found it in pristine condition
for under $100 back in the late 90s.

M28/3.5: This was my main 28, my copy seemed to be a lot sharper than what
should be legal. I lost it years ago. I do have an M28/2.8 and the
FA28/2.8, plus a Takumar 28/3.5 (the big barreled one). Oh and I do have
the awesome K30/2.8 and a bunch of other 28s for other mounts, so it's
super hard to justify buying this one.

Takumar 50/1.4, 8 element: I REALLY don't need this. My best 50mms are a
Summicron, the A50/1.4, maybe the M50/1.7 or FA50/1.7 (yes, I have all
those plus a lot more 50s!)

K50/1.2: Again, I don't need another 50. But it sure would be nice to play
with that extra third of a stop.

How about you? Any lenses you've always wanted but haven't gotten around to
getting? Any opinions on that list above?

Re: Pentax lenses I want

[Godfrey DiGiorgi]

It’s optically the same as the FA43 Limited, but that lens is se up for the 
screwdriver AF drive — the focusing is a bit too quick with a loose feel. Makes 
it hard to be precise. 

The Special is RF coupled and has a beautiful focusing feel and built in hood. 
The only downside is that close focus is .7m, like most RF lenses. Not a big 
issue on the CL since it’s FOV is cropped and it’s a short portrait tele in 
this application.

Is it any different optically to the 43mm Limited? I mean--if you'll use it
on a camera with live view/EVF, then there's no difference, correct? Is its
only advantage that it is rangefinder coupled?

I have an excellent barely used DA 16-50/2.8. Pentax sent me a new one about 5 
years ago after failing to fix my original one. This was when I was working 
with them a bit on promotions, so I believe they took care to make sure it was

Re: Pentax lenses I want

[P. J. Alling]

Actually the lens I want, but can't justify, is the DA 16-50mm f2.8.

I already have a Sigma 17-70 f2.8~4.5 which covers the range, and suits 
my needs most of the time.


Plus the Tamron 17-50mm is a wee bit better optically by all accounts 
and much closer to my budget.


I wouldn't turn my nose up at the Pentax if I could get it for the same 
price as the Tamron, since it probably beats it like a rag doll as far 
as build quality is concerned.

... and with a price tag to match!

I could never quite persuade myself I needed the older FA* 28-70/2.8
to go along with the FA* 80-200/2.8 that was my main lens. But that's
because I was mostly doing motorsports photography - very different
from the sort of thing that Juan does - so the 28-105/f4.0-5.6 I had
met my needs for the occasional pit or paddock shots.

I'm waiting to see whether the announced flagship APS-C camera body
makes it all the way into production; if it does, (and assuming that
it has the sort of feature upgrades that could tempt me) there's a
fairly good chance I'll buy one last Pentax body. But despite what
my PDML T-shirt says I'm not sure I'll be buying any more lenses;
the main potential candidate - the D FA 150-450 - would add quite
a bit to whatever the new body (plus grip) would cost.

RE: Pentax lenses I want

[jcoyle]

I don't really need any more lens, I go from 16mm  to 400mm (with a gap
between 210 and 400), but none of my current photography would justify the
expense of filling in the gap.  If I could find one, the power zoom 28-105
was one of the best I have had, and wouldn't mind getting it for when my
28-105 3.5/5.6 wears out.  However, as I've mentioned before, my phot kit
will probably last longer than I will!

Check KEH. I frequently see the "Pentax 50mm F/1.4 SMC FA" there at "won't break

Plus it's a full-frame lens if you ever get a K-1, although as far as I could 
tell, the "Pentax 50mm F/1.8 SMC DA" doesn't vignette on the K-1 even though 
it's technically a crop sensor lens.


They usually have that one available too.

Actually, I have you to thank for my latest acquisition. I was looking at KEH 
for sturdy tripods to recommend in response to your post lamenting that yours 
wasn't steady enough for photographing hummingbirds. After I found several good 
Gitzo/Manfrotto legs, I figured "What the heck, I'll see if they've got any 
Pentax lenses I want." ... and the FA 600/f4 just kind of fell into my lap.

do have the 60-250 which is somewhat better but a monster compared to
the tiny HD 55-300. The old 55-300 was excellent, the HD version is
even better. The other lenses on my wanted list are or were the DA35
macro, DFA 100 macro and 08 Wide zoom.

Re: Pentax lenses I want

[Dale H. Cook]

My wishlist for anything generally greatly exceeds the contents of my 
wallet. For now I have to be content owning a Pentax-DA 18-270mm as my 
walking-around lens, a Rokinon 650Z 650-1300mm as my long glass, and a 
Pentax-A 50mm f2. The only lens currently on my wishlist is a suitable 
late-model replacement for the 50mm as I want to return it to the K-1000 
and sell all of my 35mm film kit as a lot.

I’ve been very lucky that in the past few years I’ve managed to score on 
several of my wishlist lenses, mostly through a combination of gifts and KEH.

DA 35 macro
FA 43 ltd
DFA 100 WR macro
Sigma 35/1.4 macro

I always find myself wanting faster lenses, and particularly faster and wider, 
or faster and longer.  It must be really nice to be one of those people that 
only does one small subset of photography, like sports, wildlife or landscape.  
I take some consolation in Moore’s Law in that as sensors get better I can use 
an f/2.8 lens in cases where I used to need f/1.4 or faster. Unfortunately, I 
now find myself photographing in even more ridiculous light levels and still 
needing faster glass.

Also, unfortunately, I find myself needing autofocus more and more.  The 
situation could be relieved a bit with decent through the eyepiece live view 
with focus peaking, or a split focusing screen (katzeye), but age is taking its 
toll on my eyesight even faster than on my memory.

My 77/1.8 is still one of my favorite lenses, but when photographing musicians 
I still want faster and longer, 85/1.4, or 135 f/2 or faster.

In a similar vein, a lot of the night landscapes I do require faster and wider 
than what I have. I’ve got the Rokinon 24/1.4 which is pretty nice, and the 
Pentax 15-30/2.8, but I still constantly find myself up against difficulties 
capturing the night sky, and wanting both faster and wider glass.   It expect 
that better sensors, and/or better processing software could alleviate those 
issues.  In theory software could take multiple images, separate sky from 
foreground, stack and stitch them separately and put them back together in one 
clean photo. In theory, the software could even do something fancy with 
convolution and unsmear the stars.  
While I’m off topic and talking about my software wishlist, it would be nice if 
I could just point my processing software and a directory, have it look at time 
stamps, GPS, compass and accelerometer data and automatically HDR and/or stitch 
any photos that could be.

When photographing wildlife, I constantly find myself up against the length and 
speed limits of my bigma (50-500), I don’t know what would be better, but I do 
know that I can’t afford it.

If I was shooting APS I’d definitely want the sigma f/1.8 zooms (18-35 and 
50-100), if they were full frame I’d probably try to rent out my body on street 
corners to come up with the money.  In the department of wishing it were full 
frame, I could really use the 50-135/2.8 range in full frame, although a 
35-100/2.8 would probably do me even more good.

I also wish that I had weather sealed versions of pretty much all of my legacy 
glass. I don’t stop taking photos when the weather gets a bit damp. As has been 
recently observed, that’s often when the best opportunities happen.

The DA40/2.8 was mentioned, and back in the days of my K-x that was one of my 
favorite walkabout lenses because it turned the K-x into practically a pocket 
camera.  Like the DA35 macro, it vignettes a little bit on the K-1, but is 
still manageable.  Processing software could solve a lot of that.
Speaking of software wishlists, I wish my K-1 gave me an option between APS and 
FF, and also that the square format option didn’t store all of the raw sensor 
data so that it was useful in raw mode to save the K-1 buffer space.

Re: Pentax lenses I want

[Godfrey DiGiorgi]

The Pentax lens I always wanted is the Pentax-L 43mm f/1.9 Special that they 
produced in Leica Thread Mount for a short run of about 2000 units. Most were 
sold in Japan and still command a price around $1500 or so as a complete set 
with the matching optical viewfinder. 

A year or so back after I bought the Leica CL, I found one available in Japan 
EBay for $600 without the finder and nabbed it. It’s every bit as good a lens 
as I expected. (-:

My lucky moment came around 20 years ago, when the lens I'd always longed for
(but thought I'd never own, as it wasn't cheap) turned up on the used market.
Apparently someone who earned his living shooting NASCAR was switching from
Pentax to Nikon, as his editors were now insisting on digital images.

I found out about this from a post on rec.photos.marketplace, which went
something like "If you're looking for a bargain, Charlotte Camera have a
Pentax 250-600 for sale for _only_ $3000", plus some other remarks which
made it fairly clear the poster meant this mostly as a humorous comment.

Five minutes later I followed up with a post that said "No they don't ..."

Then I had to explain to the household expenditure committee why I'd just
paid that much for a lens, especially since it was only a couple of months
since I'd picked up a used A* 300/2.8 (with 1.4x and 2x teleconverters).

I could never quite persuade myself I needed the older FA* 28-70/2.8

I got lucky and the one last lens that I was pining away for just happened to

I think I've now got not only everything I need, but everything I wanted ...

Re: Pentax lenses I want

M20/4: I don't know why I want this one, I just do. I really like the M

A nice lens if you have a thing for primes. On the downside it's not
faster than most wide-angle zooms. Have one in my camera bag (aka The
Millstone) and haven't used it for years.


M40/2.8: I just always wanted that little pancake lens.


I've had one and sold it, years ago. A typical Tessar design:
pseudo-sharp with godawful bokeh. OK if you want something that can be
put on a MX and still fits into your pocket. Optically, there are far
better lenses.


M28/3.5: This was my main 28, my copy seemed to be a lot sharper than what
should be legal.


That's indeed a really nice lens. A somewhat wider standard lens on APS-C.


How about you? Any lenses you've always wanted but haven't gotten around to
getting? Any opinions on that list above?


The lenses I'd want all don't exist and probably never will: faster
zooms without the bulk.

I'm about to sell a load of M and A primes because my old eyes aren't
good at focussing anymore, including a M3.5/28 and a M4/20.

I'd love to have this lens for the K-01 I use for street shooting. But
I just can't justify the expense.

I want a full-frame version of this lens. It would my daily choice on
the K-1.

What I'm wishing for is a slower (say f/3.5 or 4) 24-70 weather sealed
zoom for full-frame. I have the 28-105 f/3.5-5.6 and it's a great lens
that's my main choice for hiking but I'd happily sacrifice 35mm on the
long end to get an extra 5mm on the wide end.

Re: Pentax Photo Gallery

[ann sanfedele]

I haven't submitted more in the last week or so  but I've been voting 
every couple of days - my annoyance is their catagorization of my main 
interests as to subject matter. Being largely based on what I had had 
previously accepted from how people voted as opposed to what I submitted 
overall  a few years ago.

I'd prefer "eclectic". sigh

All of my submissions have been processed, even the 60+ left over from
Feb-Jun 2018.  A random check indicates that they have also been added to
the appropriate categories.

Before the hiatus, there was never a time when i noted all the submissions
had been processed;  the backlog was generally a couple of months.  It
appears Ricoh is taking the gallery seriously.
There have, however, been no new additions to the Premier Collection, which
had always been one of my favorite aspects of the gallery.

Sofar I only did one (longish) voting session,

I am sure I will have some lonely nights in motels during my upcoming roadtrip,
so I might put in some to the PPG then (or not :-)

I've nosed around quite a few camera clubs in my life and the percentage of

But have we seen the end of the PDML Annual?

The PPG is certainly not perfect, but it is the best we have at this point.
I agree about your comment on the PPG favoring images with "pop" and
"sizzle."  I submitted one of my favorite images, a study of the texture of
tree bark.  It was rejected.  I submitted it again, and it was rejected
again.  I submitted it a third time, in a different category, and it was
approved -- and placed in the Premiere Gallery.  It was a matter of getting

Re: Pentax Photo Gallery

I submitted 1 image in the last week of September and its still in the

The gallery will only let me search for images by camera and not lens.

I am just curious as to who else is submitting and voting on images in the
PPG, now that it is reactivated, and what kind of experiences you are
having there.

Overall, the "new" gallery is very nice, but I don't understand how Ricoh
is handling the submissions process.

Since the gallery was reactivated, I have had 3 submissions approved, and
none declined.

I had about 60 images in the "Pending Photos" queue, all submitted between
March and June of 2018, and none of those has been processed. I submitted
two on Sep 23, and both were approved in about a week.  I submitted 13 on
Sep 25, none of which has been processed.  I submitted one on October 11,
which was approved in less than two days.  I submitted two more on Oct. 
16,

neither of which have yet been processed.

It appears they are ignoring submissions from 2018, although they all 
still

appear in the "Pending Photos" folder.  The process for approving recent
submissions seems almost random.

Quite curious.

Re: Pentax Photo Gallery

The two images I submitted on Sep 23 have been approved and moved to the
top of my gallery.  I submitted a dozen on September 25, and none have yet
been accepted or rejected.

My "Pending Photos" collection includes another 50 or o that were submitted
between January and June of 2018.  I wonder if they will ever be processed.

At least the PPG is working again!

Re: Pentax Photo Gallery

[ann sanfedele]

now in they come up at the top of my page.


Been a very busy couple of weeks for me - a lot on my plate..  a good 
thing but my head is swimming..

quite a few new ones this morning, however.

2.  Uploads.  The upload system is working quite well, although, despite

3.  Approvals/Rejections.  I have not had any of my images uploaded last

had any images processed and approved or rejected?

4.  Order of images.  Until yesterday, all the images in my gallery were
sorted with the oldest image first.  This made it extremely difficult to
tell im any were approved, as I had to scroll all the way down.  Now, the
most recent images are at the head of each queue.  This is much more

5.  Premiere Collection.  There have been no additions to this excellent

Anyone else have any comments or recent experiences to share?

A quick update on the PPG.

I just noticed that 2 of the images I submitted last week (of the Praying
Mantis on our pool deck) have been approved in the Gallery.  I am wondering
about the voting process, as I still have a large number of images in the
"Pending Review" section, some going back to January 2018.  I am glad,
however, to see that they are tabulating votes and approving images.

Just a SWAG, but maybe they won't let you delete a lens from your gear list if 
that lens was used on one of the photos that are already in your gallery. You 
still "own" it as long as an image made with it is in your gallery.


Can you delete images from your own gallery?

As far as I can tell there isn’t a way to look at images made with specific 
lenses. Use to be in the old edition of the Gallery.

Hard to say.  That's why I am trying to vote on as many images as possible,

Re: Pentax Photo Gallery

[John]

If I remember, the approval process required a certain number of "members" to 
vote the images in. How is that affected by the Gallery having been down for so 
long and probably most "members" having moved on and are not aware the Gallery 
is back in operation?


Do you think enough "members" are back to viewing new submissions to constitute 
a voting quorum?

Re: Pentax Photo Gallery - Revived?

[Daniel J. Matyola]

In general, the new gallery seems to function well, perhaps better than the
old gallery.
A few quirks I find a bit inconvenient:

1.  When you log in and look at your own gallery, you can see the image
titles, but not if you are not logged in or are looking at someone else's
gallery.  (I like the titles;  sometimes they explain the image.)

2.  The old galleries had the newest images at the top, and the oldest at
the end.  This starts with the oldest images (except for some unknown
reason, they put 3 random images from 2011 ahead of my 2009 images, which
are nicer!) This means I have to scroll all the way to the bottom to see if
anything has changed.

3.  In the "All" gallery view, there is no indication if an image is
approved, Pending or rejected.

4.  No new entries in the Premiere Collection.  If they add to that, that
would be an indication that someone from Ricoh is actually looking at the
images and evaluating them.

All in all, I am just glad it is back.

I know not everyone on this list likes and uses the gallery, but it is

I know not everyone on this list likes and uses the gallery, but it is

there is an active community out here, not only for the PPG, but also for

Has anyone seen any new images approved?  That will be the first sign that
they are serious about maintaining the gallery.

I know not everyone on this list likes and uses the gallery, but it is
another resource, and can be useful.  I think if everyone votes on
submissions and submits a few nes images, that will let Ricoh know that
there is an active community out here, not only for the PPG, but also for

Re: Pentax Photo Gallery - Revived?

[John]

It's in the upper right of the GREY area, just above the 3rd artist on the top 
row (I see three across when I click on Artists).


It's just a small banding box the same color as the background -  Grey on Grey.

You come up when I search for you, but a search for "Dan Matyola" returns 
"Sorry, No Artists Found".

It seems to be a work-in-progress - I can't find any way to search for a
particular photographer other than by scrolling down the 'Artists' Page
and the
old links to an artist's gallery no longer work.

Perhaps not dead after all?  But still work to do.

I'm sure that Search Box wasn't there when I first looked - but it's there now.

It will be interesting to see what Ricoh does with the Gallery from now on.
