Thanks again Dewman! This lens really hits the sweet spot for me for plant and flower photography with the perfect field of view and DOF for the way I like to shoot them.

Very nice image. The DFA 50 mm Macro is one of the best lenses Pentax ever designed, with great uniformity over the whole frame.

Excuse me, did you say, an attractive flower? Now there is an understatement if there ever was one. How about incredibly beautiful? More appropriate I would say. Wonderful shooting sir and

thanks so much for uploading.

I think it produces the best bokeh of any lens I've ever owned. Nothing to not like.
