Here is my apples-to-apples (flowers-to-flowers) comparison between the A*135 @ 2.4 and K135 @ 2.5
1/90. 800 ISO.
Shot on my K1 at minimum focus distance.
Light source - late afternoon daylight and tungsten lamp
White balance setting - Daylight
Custom image setting - Reversal film
Only PP is cropping.
The A*135 has a shorter minimum focusing distance.
Notice the difference in the coffee cup/bokeh.
That K135 stacks up pretty nicely to the spendy A*135.
