Not very well defined, Unfortunately a little slobbery...
Same bridge, same hour, with the 15mm :
Pentax K-5 II & SMC 15mm @ f/6,7 30s 80 ISO
Thanks, that's a perfect example! I think I'd better to forget the 20-40mm if I look for well definied defined starbursts... and go for the 40mm smc as my next lens to purchase.

It doesn't compare at all with what you'd get with a SMC DA15 or DA21. Closing down the aperture could help, but it's not a fair comparison. The closest you'll get is probably the FA31 which has 9 straight blades. Even if it cannot compare to the two best, it's better than most.
Thanks for the photo. No starburst at all, but I don't expect any starburst at 1 sec @ f/2.8. I am however impressed by the 21mm in your gallery, with nearly the same settings
p.s. ton site à l'air sympa, je vais aller voir ça
EDIT : bdery, I came across this photo taken with the da 40mm on your website (
https://bernard-dery.smugmug.com/Nature/Nature-et-ville/i-7CV8szF) and with 5 sec @ f/6.3, I am disapointed to not see any starburst
May be it is because the light is to close to the camera.
