B&W for the most part.
Which "A" lenses are you dissatisfied with in particular
and why?
I have 2. A35/2 & A100/2.8.
I find lots of edge frigning with them. At any aperture.
Better with flash than outside. In fact, really decent with
flash. But outside pics are noticably softer with the fringing.
Rob asked the same question that I was going to. I've not used those
two.
I've been using the A24/2.8, A28/2.8, A35/2.8, A50/2, f/1.7 and f/
1.4, and A200/4. All of these seem to work very nicely on the DS
body, as does the M85/2, with minimal to no chromatic aberration issues.
Both 50s (F50/1.7 & FA50/1.4) perform with excellent edge
sharpness. The K30 performs as well as the 50s -- but it's
just a bit more hassle to use.
The F50/1.7 and A50/1.7 are optically identical. I have both of them,
both in excellent condition, and there is absolutely no difference in
their rendering at all.
