Re: smc m 28mm f2 vs smc k 28mm 3.5
Date: Wed, 28 May 2003 19:42:47 +0930 From: adphoto [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: pdml [EMAIL PROTECTED] hi since i twice missed the 30mm 2.8 on ebay. i am now considering these two. i looked at a reolution test and it seems that the 28mm m f2 is better. anyone care to elaborate on either of these two. Hi, if you are looking for a cheap high-quality lens you may also consider the M 28mm/3.5. They are quite common. I have the 30mm and like it a lot. This lens is very sharp between f4-11. It is capable of showing fine details and, most important, of reproducing incredibly fine tonal ranges. Excellent for BW and slides. Ebay prices seem to go up to 250-300 US$ though (still significantly less then the 31mm ltd) Enjoy, Alexander __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: smc m 28mm f2 vs smc k 28mm 3.5
I have both the M28/3.5 and the K30/2.8. While I feel the K30 is the better lens, the M28/3.5 is certainly no slouch, and it is pretty tough to tell the difference with everyday subjects. Only with closer subjects at the wider apertures do I really feel like I would definitely prefer the K30, and this is really just a matter of taste (bokeh).

The K 28/3.5 is excellent and is a tremendous value. I can't say for certain, but I would guess that the build quality is slightly superior to the M lens.

Re: smc m 28mm f2 vs smc k 28mm 3.5
I do have the K28/f2, K28/f3.5, M28/f2 and F28/f2.8. Of these the K28/f3.5 is in my pfoto bag most often, as it is really, really sharp, offers superb build quality, the size is very convenient, and the focusing feel is perfect. I pick the much bigger K28/f2 only if I foresee that I need the speed. The F28/f2.8 I pick only in combination with an AF camera. The M28/f2 I own longer than the others, and I can confirm that it has very high resolution. However, it seems to me, that the K28/f3.5 has slightly higher contrast.
