The 2.8 lenses may be only 2/3 stop faster than the f3.5 but that
difference alone would mitigate against using just the K 28 3.5 under
many circumstances. I might use it outside in relatively bright
conditions, but all the inherent sharpness in the world won't make up
for a misfocused image d
for a good price because of seller ignorance.
(Look for a 28mm without the silver ring on the tip.-see Boz)

My K28/3.5 is pretty sharp and appears to have good contrast, but I use my
FA 31/1.8 now. I think I'll be dump the K.

The SMC Pentax 28/3.5 (K series) may well be the sharpest of them
all. It definitely outperforms the A and M 28/2.8.

Hell, I'd be happy with "just" an "A" version.

There are two different versions of the M 28 one is cosmetically similar
and optically identical to the A 28. the older version is a slightly
different optical formula and looks like all the other M lenses. I was
never happy with any of the earlier f2.8 28mm lenses that Pentax
produced, instea

I'm specifically interested in version 1 of the M lens. And not the
Takumar or F lenses. Thanks.

How did you know my middle name is Margaret.
I have the A 28 and it takes nice sharp photos. I doubt you would go
wrong with either, but the A setting is nice to have.

I understand there were two variants of the 'M' lens; an older one which had
a different optical design, and a newer o

Sorry Anthony, but NO. They are very different lenses (both formula and
performance have very little to share).
Recalling a 10-years old comparison, the M lens wins very ea

Hello again, Margaret.
Would anyone be able to comment on the M28/2.8 AND the A28/2.8.
Preferences? I'm mostly interested in optics and ergonomics. The 'A'
setting is not important to me at this point.
Thanks!
