Originally posted by GeneV I'd prefer a compact 24mm, but the DA21 and DA40 are my most used street lenses. They are so inconspicuous, especially on a K-x. I have also used the DA21 on mf a lot. It saves a missed point of focus on a quick street shot.
Endorsing those comments:
I like the M20/4 or K24/2.8
as light, compact, discreet lenses
for walk-around/street duty on a K-x.
Apart from its extra stop of speed,
the K24 has the advantage
that its distortion doesn't need correcting
as often as the M20's does.
Either lens turns the K-x
into a "poor man's X100/X1,"
fitting in a bridge camera waist pack.
The DA21 would do the same,
but since I have the M20,
I never bothered with the DA21.
