Re: Focus Feel FA 50/1.4

[David Oswald]

The SMC-Pentax FA 50mm f/1.4 has reasonably well dampened focusing in MF 
mode, especially for an AF lens.  It's definately among the better 
feeling lenses in that regard.

"before they are history" ???  Is Pentax dropping its standard lens?

manual focus Pentax bodies, MX, K2, etc. I want the best optics but am
concerned about the Focus feel in manual mode. Opinions will be much
appreciated.Thanks, Bill Lawlor
