SMC Pentax-A 50/1.4 @f2.8

I'm very happy with the A 50mm 1.7 that I just got last week (:

Here are some samples

Camera I used was my Program Plus.

Very nice. I recently picked up one of these lenses and from your images it looks like I made a good choice.

I bought this a while back but hadn't really used it at all beyond testing so I decided to rotate it into my sling-bag for a while. The bokeh is a bit rough and the MFD is longer than I'd like but otherwise it's pretty nice.

Excellent Dave,

Those Pentax 100's (A and M) are so nice and compact. Perfect portrait lens on film and pretty decent on digital as well from the looks of this.

I have the M version and it is one of my most used lenses, I love it. K.

It certainly is compact (and solid)--fits right in with a crowd of limiteds.

Those spring shots are really nice, jasonzhan.

Yep, I got this lens last Spring, but have no chance to use it last year, now feel this lens it's very interesting one, nice color and also can take zoom picture at 70mm.

By the way, I have another A70-210 on the way!

Thanks for your kind words, "A Team" could also mean "Auld Team" (note Scottish spelling for old)

Perhaps I'm just being mean, but while my lenses still produce what I need in terms of images, I have not seen the need to update or change to newer glass.

A* 300 f/4

**dadipentak** · 04-19-2012, 12:12 PM

I like it.

All lovely but my fave is the first one, very nice colors and subtle textures...
