Hi Walt I could provide you with a link to the PEF's if you are interested. I don't compare them to modern lenses, I'm just glad that I can use what I already have so cost wise there is nothing better for me. The backward compatibility is a really strong point of the Pentax brand IMHO and SR for example gives me a lot more photographic possibilities. I will use my M42 SMC Takumar 35, 50 and 85mm next week and if the results are what I expect now the DA kit lens will only be used if I need the 28mm wide end if ever.

They all looked "good" to me, but that doesn't necessarily put them in the same league as modern DA* lenses. :-) Walt -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
