I have the K version, its not great on my K10D, but acceptable for web stuff.
I can look and see if i have any fringing, my concern was it appears a bit softer than it should. IIRC i tried it with a roll of Tmax on the PZ-1 and got a decent result, mind you i processed it my self and printed it on a crappy dark room set up.
