Not to speak for anyone else, but if I remember correctly,
Yoshihiko later qualified that statement. I think he ended up
using it just for portraiture. It is perhaps that the Ricoh
Rikenon f1.2 offers a pleasing character of bokeh at wide
apertures, but not a superior lens compared to the Pentax at all
apertures.
