Jack, with present level of algorithms, FE can be used merely as a raw material for later processing, such as complete defishing. I cannot say if 10.5 mm defished FE is wider or narrower than rectilinear shot from DA 12-24 at 12 mm, but it surely is pretty darn wide. Boris On 1/1/2011 8:11

Colin, If you provide a subject line, you'll get more responses. Buying the 17-28 would be good if (1) you shoot film, or (2) you are sure that Pentax is going to produce a camera with a 35mm format sensor. The 17-28 fits the Pentax digital bodies nicely, but doesn't provide much fisheye

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.

Completely different. My 18mm is a fisheye pancake lens and has a max aperture of f11. Also, it's M42. It's not a bad lens, it's just more of a collector's item than anything else, and I need an appropriate cap to complete the set. The 3rd party cap I have is making it harder to sell. Here
