Not that long ago a, five years at most IIRC, Modern Photography did an
article on winter photography, with the sun in or just out of frame on
digital cameras, if you read the photo credits all of the lenses used
were Pentax super multi coated primes, from the late 1970s early 1980s
So lets see, fewer lens elements with superior coatings really does mean
less flare. Who would have thunk. One of the reasons I think dropping
the SMC designation for HD is a pretty bad marketing idea. If you know
about SMC, you know.

I've been prevaricating over whether to get the Fujinon 23mm f1.4 with
what's left of the money from my Pentax DSLR sale. At 800 GBP though,
it doesn't seem right. So, for a tenth of the price I got myself a
Pentax M 24mm f2.8. I took it round the block for a stroll on
Christmas morning and I must say it's very well behaved. I was
particularly pleased with this one where it handled the back lighting
admirably:
