Hi Albano,

I have a Pentax Lenses and Accessories brochure, 06771, from the time
bridging the K and M lenses. In the blurb about the K 200/2.5 it says

"...ever mindful of the needs of the professional photographer [...] its
6-element, 6-group optical design ensures high contrast and definition, as
well as attractive out-of-focus highlights."

So which bit do we believe?? <g>

I remember others from their brochures, but this is the first I found
to confirm it.

Incidentally, if the Hasselblad lens is a Carl Zeiss and it is like
the CZ lenses for 35mm, then it certainly will have nice bokeh.
