A dull, rainy April morning in western Pennsylvania.
SMC-A 50/2.8 Macro on K-70
Unless I need greater reach or 1:1, this lens has bumped my DFA 100/2.8 WR out of the camera bag.

I was almost ready to make a smart remark and ask when the 50mm-A macro stopped going 1:1 on macro until I checked the Forum reviews and discovered to my complete surprise that the A version is 1:2 but that the FA version and my later D FA version are both 1:1. I had been assuming all along that all the versions had the same optics. Thanks for the enlightenment!
