Rick I did use a subject line. But I made the mistake of putting a ? instead of the word Question. I think it got stripped for an illegal character. Others, Thanks for your thoughts. I did put it on a K-X and saw the same shortcoming. It's nice 17-20, but beyond 20mm it seems not unique enough.

F 17-28 Fisheye Redux

A couple of months ago I purchased a bargain-grade 17-28 Pentax Fisheye Zoom from KEH. After receiving the lens and checking it out I wrote to the list as it appeared to me to be mis-assembled (the lens, not the list). It was focusing well past infinity at the infinity mark, and at 17mm zoom its
