Re: To get K30/2.8 ?
I don't know, I think so but then I'm biased, also I think I got a bargain when I picked the one I have up for under $200.00 USD.

RE: To get K30/2.8 ?
this guy's prices are insane. I've picked up many of the lenses he lists for 1/3 to 1/2 his quotes on ebay.

Re: To get K30/2.8 ?
Hi Frankie, I have all three and would not part with any of them. The choice is yours and the fact that the 30s are hard to find and expensive, I would go after either the 28 or 35mm. Actually, any of the three will be hard to find.

Is it still reasonable to have K30? Keh has a couple of K28/3.5s at ~$100 and $80 (EX+ and EX condition). They've got an EX+ 30/2.8 for ~$450. I think it would be far wiser to the K35/3.5 and K28/3.5 (or M version of that one) and wait until you can find a good deal on the 30/2.8. Mark __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful.

Re: To get K30/2.8 ?
Frankie, I sold a SMC Pentax-M 35mm f/2.0 and SMC K Pentax 28mm f/3.5 to purchase a SMC Pentax K 30mm f/2.8 and have not regretted the decision. I did not perform any formal tests, but I feel the images the K 30mm produces are superior to the M 35mm and K 28mm. If you can find a K 30mm at a reasonable price, I would recommend you purchase it... Regards, Jose R.

Re: To get K30/2.8 ?
I am not a collector but I own a 30/2.8 which immediatly became my second most used lens. I was not really happy with the K 28/3.5 which I found a little too big and heavy for what it was. If you buy it from KEH, $450 is a bit pricey though... Thibault Grouas. « Frankie Lee » [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote : I am thinking about getting a K30/2.8.

Tough choice. First I thought it's better to have two lenses and choose the focal lenght according to the needs of the moment. But 2.8 is 2/3 of stop faster than 3.5 and 30mm is a good compromise, almost a 28mm... But what others said stands, so wait for a better priced 30mm and then sell the 28mm and/or the 35mm to pay for it. Andre --
Re: To get K30/2.8 ?
If you can handle the cost, it can be an excellent strategy to purchase one in-between focal length in place of two. I was going nuts choosing between my Zenitar 20/2.5K and my Pentax SMC 24/2.8K. I sold both when I found a Carl Zeiss Jena 20/2.8K that's more like 22mm. (The Jena is actually an M42 screwmount to which someone has permanently fitted a K mount. It has the Auto/Manual switch and the view grows dim when you stop down in Manual.) [EMAIL PROTECTED] attachment: winmail.dat
