The broken 50MM F2.
Posted By: Pentaxperson, 02-22-2009, 09:33 PM

My cat decided to jump on my table and knock down my Pentax *ist DS2 which had my 50mm F2 connected to it.... sad day cause this lens was TACK SHARP.

I decided to take it apart...but upon careful examination and playing with it.. the barrel is distored and can no longer focus.

So I decided to post the carnage....and at least give the lens a proper photo farewell

At least you got a good photo out of a cat-astrophic event.
