I have only had it since Monday
and have only used it for one roll of film
but I got a good feeling about this one!
Very fine lens, feels good, moves good, awesome Macro capability when 1:1
talk to Pentax bodies very well (LED Readouts)
$50 rebate if you buy before the end of month I think!!!
If you are concerned about 85 vs 90, that shouldn't bother you.
its seems to be a 'bright' 2.8f also
I like the weight and I like the focus restriction/limit feature
You can limit it to regular (non-macro) or macro (not distant) so when its
searching for focus, its doesn't go from End to End.
The lens can disengage its focus ring so that it doesn't move at all in
AutoFocus
mode, I like that.
The weight makes it feel very solid. Color rendition is fabulous. TAK sharp!
