Well, there are few things to say in defense of K50/1.2. You see, the shots I took with the K were slightly before the crops were fully ripe. Another thing is that the shots with A50/1.2 and DA21 and FA43 were taken during sunset. I finally managed to deliberately go on location at the time of my choosing. Naturally, the colors came out warmer. And, to tell you a little secret ;-), I boosted a bit yellow and orange tones in post processing. I also think that A50/1.2 is an outstanding optic. I will be hard pressed to choose between A50/1.2 and FA43 if I were asked to do so.
