was first developed, everything is add on, and not very well
implemented, IIRC.

about 4 or 5 years ago. Development stopped soon after that.

During a war you get to drive tanks through the sides of buildings
and shoot foreigners - two things that are usually frowned on during peacetime.

No he hasn't, if that were true the OVERPRICED would be in there somewhere.

Hi,
I have bought past weekend the SMC-M 28 f2.8 ($55), SMC-M 50 F4 Macro

about the first two lenses, however almost nothing about the 55mm. I

The 55 1.8 and 2.0 are identical lenses. Pentax to differentiate them
put a ring in the 2.0 to keep it from opening up to 1.8. It is a bit

applicable.

for one. (I already have an f2.8, it's a lovely lens).
