Nice! Be sure to keep us up to date with your thoughts of the lens (along with some sample shots). Maybe we can change the "special order" status.

I am mainly curious as to how it does with critical focus on the K-1.

Congratulations with this nice lens! I hope you'll take lots of nice photos.

Do you plan to use it for portraiture mostly?

Primarily for portraits but will shoot flowers and other stuff too,

Snapping ducks - that is almost as crazy as the Soligor 135mm f1.5 I saw the other day.

**IgorZ** · 08-27-2018, 02:25 AM

That's one big lens... Congrats! Would be interesting to see some photos...
