Phlox in the backyard. Sprinkling still, so just a quick picture with the K105mm at f2.8.

Auto-Takumar 55/1.8 and K-3. These railings are a good test of a lens's bokeh.

I really like that 2nd to the last one, you always pull such nice soft background colors out of those FA* lenses. The only FA* lens I have is the 24mm and although I don't get much of a chance to use it I would find it very difficult to let it go. The only other FA* I am interested in is the 85mm but I'm in no hurry

Thanks! FA*85 used to be on my wish list, too, but then I bought Sigma 85mm f/1.4 instead.

Some more FA* 80-200 shots below.
