I'm interested to know what people think of the differances between
the K lens and the M version, especially regarding overall wide open

the archives don't seem to offer much help. I recall many people
regarding these lenses as virtually identical, but a look at the
cross sections would seem to tell a different story.
They are not optically the same:

I only have the K, so I have no comparisons of my own to contribute,
sorry. It is very likely I will put it up for sale, but I don't think
you are in Europe, so this doesn't mean much to you, I don't think :-)
