Lloyd Chambers comments on the HD DA Limiteds

Hi everyone, my apologies if this has been posted. Lloyd Chambers just got the K3 and the HD DA Limited lenses to go with it and has some very nice comments on the look and feel of the lenses over at: diglloyd - Blog

He has not tested the combo yet and he is a very tough tester of equipment.

There's no question that the lenses are well-built, but that article doesn't really contribute much apart from what the specs say. He's got a point though: a compact mirrorless camera would be perfect for these limiteds!

It's only a prelim article. He posts a tidbit and then gets down to brass tacks for subscribers. Ymmv, just wanted people to know about him.

Still waiting for the SMC vs HD limited lenses comparison!

TheCameraStoreTV in their K3 review used the new HD 40mm Ltd's and the SMC version. HD showed better contrast.
