In sum, the 35/2.8, 40/2.8, and 55/1.4 all seem to have value when used with

And the evidence…

A small gallery here. I didn’t keep these full size as the vignetting at 
question is visible, or not, even at reduced image size.

The first image is from the 24/2.0 [Yes Larry, NOT 1.4] to show the scene. Then 
one or more shots from the DA 15mm, 35mm macro, 40mm, and 55mm and one from the 
50-135/2.8.
I was wondering if it might be a Samyang.

Thanks a bunch.  At first I thought that they were all vignetting down the left 
side, then I realized that was a tree trunk.

Sorry about that. Not a good setup. After initial setup (with a longer lens) I 
never looked through the viewfinder. Just swapped lenses, did a sequence of 
shots, repeat for i = 1 to p where p=# of lenses.
But even with the dark tree trunk you can still get a sense of the vignette 
effect (or not).
I'm bummed about the 50-135, that is a range I need in FF for photographing 
tests at my dojo.  I guess I'll just use the 28-75 in crop mode for now.

Which part of the 50-135 range are you actually using? And are you just 
thinking about focal length? Or equivalent field of view? My guess would be 
that on the K-1 the FOV you want would put you the long end of the 50-135 and 
so it might work out alright…

On APS, I use the 28-75, and would appreciate both wider and longer, so that would be 42-105 on FF. That is why I thought that 50-135 would be a nice range on FF. Wider is more important than longer, because I can crop.

So, a 24-70 on FF and one on APS and switching between the two might work. :-)
