Just got one of the HORUS BENNU 50mm F1.7 MC Limited , it arrived today through normal post office from korea,
Very solid full metal body with multi coated Lens , apature with click each stop,
the Lens also look better compare to the attached photo shown in their ebay tread.
They advertized as new , it arrived look new , but with couple of dust inside the lens , it is unacceptable for new lens , i sent an email to the seller just now , waiting for reply !

You might want to contribute a few photos to the "off-brand club" thread from your very "off-brand" Horus Bennu before you send it back.

This lens is like a joke =.=

Did anyone else notice the weird bokeh this lens gave? I'd love to see some examples in higher resolution.

This lens is like a joke =.=

Thank you in my purchase item.

I want to let you know that this is not a used one but brand new one
. It will take seven to fifteen business days for you to get the item. I am sorry for your receiving late.
I think I didn't send filter together. That was my mistake.

If you are talking about the K mount version, Had one. Instead of going into a long rant about it, I will just say I didn't care too much for it. I recently picked up a Sears 55mm f1.4 M42 mount however, that I would give thumbs up for..

How do you compare the super -Tak 50mm f1.4 to this sear 55mm f1.4, which one better , price wise which lower? juz curiouse !

[realguard]

Bought also Rokinon 85mm f1.4 , which too will arrive here soon !
I heard they all same like vivitar/rokinon /samyang , since you are using it too , juz want to now will the Pentax DSLR make a tit sound when we turn to the right focus point using manual focus? oppps curiouse too !

I don't know. Never had the super takumar. The sears is definitely less expensive. Mine came attached to a near mint condition Sears TLS (basically a spotmatic) and I think I paid $75 total (been buying a lot of stuff lately). Did I pay too much? Maybe. Don't know, don't care. If I did, it wasn't by much. The price of the Takumar has gone completely crazy in the last several months, especially here in the USA.

Here is a group of test shots taken with the Sears on my K7. All of the graveyard pics were from an idling car (I just drove around, pointed, focused, and shot). Most of the grave shots were at around f8. The other photos were taken to test the Out Of Focus areas to some extent.

If you mean the focus confirmation beep, yes. At least the K7/K20/K10 do. I Tend not to completely trust it though and rely more on what I see on the focus screen. In the case of the K mount manual focus lenses however, Focus trap or Catch In Focus works quite nicely, especially with the faster lenses.
