Well if the tacky look, the hyperbolic naming (not only a "Limited" but

"The maximum aperture of f22 in this HorusBennu lens ensures improved

... then take a look at the hopelessly nervous bokeh, visible in even
the miniscule samples they provide. Look at the two middle daisy shots ...

HorusBenno? Maybe HorusShitto.
Surely a real (used) Pentax 50/1.7 can be had for $60 US.
