SMC-A 2.8/20mm is not too bad IMO. Jens Bladt mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hjem.get2net.dk/bladt
-----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: Joe Wilensky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sendt: 3. december 2004 20:00 Til: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Emne: Re: Fast, Wide, and Small A colleague of mine was a photojournalist in the '70s and '80s and used Olympus OM's. When the 21mm f/2 Zuiko came out around 1980, it became one of her favorite lenses for work. But that doesn't help, as Pentax doesn't have anything similar. I have Vivitar's 28mm f/1.9 in screwmount and K-mount, and while it is compact, quite light and fairly small (58mm filter), it's not very wide. But it's a very nice performer.
