This is a great lens for portraits on an APS-C body.

Here is a quick snap from the last night of Chanukah. Nothing special, but I love the low light responsiveness on this lens.

I'd have to say that most of my favorite images have been taken with this lens.

Just bought this used MIJ FA 31mm, though honestly it doesn't look like it was ever actually "used" - not a mark on it. So far very impressed with it.

This sample archive itself is pure testament to the sublime and ever-so-talked-about qualities of this piece of glass. I've adored it for years and have been using it more and more on film where I believe it shines even more. Were it a slightly *smaller* lens physically, I might never take it off at least one my bodies. Some shots...

Pentax MZ-3 | FA31 | Velvia100F


Pentax LX | FA31 | Velvia100


Pentax MX | FA31 | Ektar100


Pentax MX | FA31 | Superia200


Pentax MX | FA31 | Portra400


Pentax MX | FA31 | Portra160


an one digital shot from the K3 for good measure...
