I Like 40mm on film. Shoot it moderately often with my Canonet. 60mm on the other hand is something I can't really see. The DA 40 is known to cover a 35mm frame. IIRC there is a big fan of it on film lurking around here somewhere. -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
