Boy, that sure wasn't my experience. I've used it on film extensively but haven't tried it on the *ist D since I got the 16-45/4 with the camera. But on film I was disappointed in the sharpness, though the flare control was certainly up to Pentax' (high) standards. On second thought, it could've seemed less sharp because the same rolls of film contained shots from the FA* 200/2.8 and F* 300/4.5 and A 50/1.4. -- Thanks, DougF (KG4LMZ) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
