Win a Pentax Limited Lens: Raffle Now Live!

Jimfear · 07-27-2009, 01:01 AM

I finally took the time to go through this thread from beginning to end. A lot of great photos to say the least!

I was surprised to see so many photos with the 50 1.2 and almost none with the 50 1.4, this can hardly represent the actual distribution of the two. I'll try to fix this now. All shot on film.

K50 1.4

@ 2.8(I think)

@1.4

@ 2 or 2.8

@ 2-2.8

And a few with the lovely 35mm 3.5

@ around 5.6-8

@ around 5.6-8 Trivia info: Finland's longest bridge in the background, 1km across.

Nice shots, I like the light effects!

I got a K20/4 a few months back and enjoy it as well.

Woa, nice shots here: I just added another K series lens to my collection: the K 2.8/105 (already have the K 1.8/55, 1.4/50 and 2/28). Will try it out in the following days. Let's see how it perform on a K-7

Nice pickup the K105 is a beauty, enjoy!

A bunch of great shots posted here.
That makes me very happy to have completed my set of K lenses as soon as the K-85mm F1.8 and K-105mm F2.8 arrive.
Of course you will tell me that I am missing many but enough is enough!!!!:ugh:
Well, I read that the 30mm F2.8 was a very interesting lens....

Oh and that the 35mm F3.5 was one the sharpest....

Cheers,

Luc

Where do you guys find these 105/2.8 K lenses. They hardly ever show up on Ebay.

Yes they are hard to find. Also if they show up on eBay with a "Buy it now" option, they will go quickly. I found mine a few months back on eBay, after looking for awhile. A couple more showed up shortly after.

You also have to check eBay sites in other countries, as eBay Canada does not get all the listings. If I come across one I will PM you.

I found mine the same way. It just arrived tonight from Sweden

Pentax LX and Elitechrome 200 (not the best of film...)

There are more sources than just eBay for finding nice K lenses

Here are a few simple results with my new K 105/2.8:
