It seems to me that this new lens is not for seasoned Pentaxians who
already have this focal length covered. Gimme a moment, I have it
covered 4.5 times with 4 of my zoom lenses and FA 31. It is very good
candidate to start prime life in Pentax land, but it seems that the
sentiment is

Oh, I wasn't referring to PDML. I was speaking in more general terms.
PDML is pretty level-headed

If I ever get another Pentax dSLR, it would have this lens on it 99%
of the time.
This is just how I shoot anymore, I love my standard FOV lenses!
Would love to get the more expensive lens, but it is just too far out
of my budget.
Disappointed it doesn't have the quick-shift focus though. Even
At least you're consistent.
I was curious about the new DA35 because I the only lens I have wider
than 50 is my FA20-35. This is really fine because I like the way
this lens performs but I'm always curious about primes. What I find
most interesting about these tests is that the A35 was
Yup.

This is one that always makes me wonder. 35 mm was clearly the new

the focus ring felt sloppy, and all the FAs were guilty of that. You
could get it around $300. This was clearly a lens to have for the DX
format unless you
Damn, Dario, I went to KEH to see if I could find a price on an FA35.
Unfortunately, I ended up buying a K28 3.5 for $58. Most reviews of
