I once had the Kiron 105/2,8 Macro and it was very nice. Now I have the
Pentax A100/4.0 which is smaller and has less weight but goes only to 1:2.
AFAIK most of the 100mm Macro lenses are fine, even the cheap Pentax 100/3.5
(at least optically).
Best, Bernd

Has any one had experience with both of these lenses? Has anyone seen a
comparison or
done a comparison between these lenses? I haven't been able to find a head
to head
comparison.
I'm looking to get a macro lens and while all I have are Pentax lenses, I
might
consider a third party lens if there isn't much difference performance-wise
and build
quality. And I can save about $150.
Thanks in advance.
