Originally posted by jheu02 It seems he's saying the lenses just don't give the sensor a good enough image, i.e. the new sensor needs a better/higher quality image to work with. But looking at the pics posted by pinholecam from the SMC-K 135mm 2.5 (which I fortunately have) I can't see anything wrong with them. Looks like great color, contrast and resolution! Great glass is great glass IMO.
I have no doubt that we'd all have to go through our manual lenses to find out which are the ones which don't make the cut on the new 16mp sensor.
The K135 is a good lens and fortunately imho, it does have the resolution till this point.
All samples unprocess from my JPEG shots.

Another sample (perhaps better focused)

The new and much improved AF, does bring up the temptation to change from the to a DA*50-135 though, just to increase the keeper rate and occasional laziness to be the focusing 'motor'
