I dunno why some people does not like the FA*200/2.8 ED [IF]. For me is a very fine and ultrasharp lens, which make me ask anyone who does not feel this lens is sharp, if your sample has ever been CLA'd by anyone not official Pentax Service?

Some pics with my FA* 200/2.8 ED [IF]

With K3 full frame

Look closely at the eye's reflection.... violá! THAT'S ME TAKING THE PICTURE!!!!!

Hello everyone, somebody knows if my fa* 28-70 can work better in a k3 than my actual k20d?.

Impressive images; so sharp and so clean! Only bad thing is realizing LBA can strike back when least expected

zzeitg · 03-15-2015, 01:13 AM

FA* 28-70 and a a tomcat (almost lens-to-lens).

I've never heard of anyone disliking the FA* 200. It's an incredible lens, but unnecessary for me when I already have the FA* 80-200/2.8.

K10D and FA* 80-200 (at 200mm and f/2.8)

I wasn't close enough to see if I was in the eye's reflection
