I tried it with the 77mm Limited and the results were good, more than
usable. However, not as good as without the TC (as expected). Actually
it made for a nice, but slow compact telephoto. I ended up getting an
FA 135/2.8 so I don't have much need for that TC-lens combo anymore.

On Mon,
Dear All,
Has anyone tried the following combination? What were your results.

I tested the DA70 on the Pentax-A Rear Converter 2x-S. The results
were not particularly great, a good deal of chromatic aberration and
red-fringing developed. I don't know how different the design of the
1.7x converter is.

Well the DA 40mm ltd is essentially the same formula as the M 40mm, and
the same caveat that Boris give about the DA applies. The DA 70 has no
aperture ring, (Ok, I'll say it for you/ Well Duh!), and it has limited
usefulness on most Pentax Film bodies, at least the ones I'm interested

Hi all:
I would like to know if someone has tried to use the DA 70 mm. 2.4 on a
film SLR, and in that case, whether it covers the 35 mm. film frame or
not, and if there is severe vignetting.

This lens is awesome!! Are Nikkor DC lenses doing the same thing?
I don't think so. In one of the review we can read:
The Nikon can AF, too, but can not give the supreme bokeh of the STF
lens -- the DC lens shifts lenses around to over- or undercorrect
You've been complaining about the K10D, and it hasn't even been released

The only remedy for this is to use... Minolta STF (Smooth Transfer

bokeh similar to the picture we achieve by squinting our eyes :-)
Here is small comparison of STF bokeh and classic 135/2.8 lens:

From the 1st user samples I have just seen, it shares the same bright-ring

I believe ring bokeh happens due to the laws of optics (physics)

That's not what I understand,

No, I didn't get anything wrong. And I'm not attacking or insulting

Nothing but praise for the DA14? Surely you are joking. I certainly
