Oh Phooey! I gritted my teeth a few days ago and passed on
a Buy it Now for $125.00 on one. Lasted a whole 2 hours.
After reading the mixed reviews I couldn't justify another
28. (I have 7!).
Shoulda grabbed it huh?

Subject: Re: New enablement: SMC Pentax-FA 28mm f/2.8
I think you'll really love the FA28/2.8, which has long been my pick for
"Pentax's most underrated lens".
Thanks, I think I'll like it too. My 50mm f/1.4 gets a LOT of use,
primarily for its size and low light performance. The 28 gives me the
same size, and pretty good low light performance (f/2.8), though I wish
they made an f/2. I still want the 35 f/2, but this will do for now.
I forgot to mention one other lens component to my kit; the SMC
Pentax-FA 80-320 f/4.5-5.6. I don't use it that much nowadays though;
135mm f/2.8 is long enough usually, on an *ist-DS.
