Hi Mat,
thank you for sharing those photos!
Meanwhile I've played with my new toy and I quite like the feel how it handles. From your photos I see, that it's also quite good performer. At least in right hands :)
BR, Margus

Yes, it's a bit dark/slow, but overall it's not a bad lens.
http://www.matoe.org/pics/MIT_060702/020_17.jpg - this picture was taken with the exact camera and lens in question. Film was Royal Gold 400, and the lens was pretty close to wide open. There is a bit of color fringing in the scan, but I don't see it in the print that I have, so I suspect it may be a scanning artifact. If you browse the directory, you'll find a bunch of other horticultural pictures that I took the same day, with the same lens/camera.

Hi,
lately I purchased P30t and as it come without lens, decided also to buy some cheap MF zoom. Made some e**ying and today SMC Pentax-A 35-80 1:4-5.6 arriived. OK, understandible, it is pretty "dark" compared to my loved AF primes like FA 50/1.4 or 28/2.8 and I do not expect any equal quality from it. On the other hand - it's quite compact / light and SMC Pentax lens after all, not some Sigma or Tokina, right? How does it perform compared to other Pentax MF "normal" zooms?
BR, Margus Z-1p for slides Z-20 for color negs P30t for BW ?
