Loving my pentax lenses!

Shihaochew · 01-25-2013, 06:12 AM

Hi all,

I am pretty new to this forums but I have been shooting with Pentax for the past half a year

Accumulated several sweet pentax lens. I just love how pentax has one of the best (in terms of IQ, handling and size) APS-C camera bodies + some of the most amazing lenses I have used. Here's to share some photos of my favourite lense

Nice collection there! Welcome to the forums. Feel free to check out the lens review database on these forums to find some more gems

quite the enviable collection, happy shooting!

a most drool-worthy collection... makes me want to add the DA 35 macro and a SILVER FA 77 to my collection, if only I had some money...

Actually that DA 15 is not that good. They are hard to get rid of too but since I'm such a nice guy I will offer you $20 for it. I should be able to recoup that by recycling it.

Lovely photos and a great collection!

My collection has a slightly different focus

Man oh Man, the one lens I regret selling was my DA 35mm LTD. Just so versatile

Between the 15/35/77 you really do not need anything else unless you shoot wildlife.

Wow, what are those lenses? I suppose they are out of production pentax lenses?

My favourite lens in my collection has got to be the fa77mm. Not just for the image quality, but for its excellent build and handling
