This lens deserves some recognition.....I used this lens for a month on the "Singled in challenge"...... lens is capable of getting nice shots.......really surprised me.

Gorgeous shots! I actually just picked one up and I'm looking forward to taking it out. I was really surprised when I was searching for a sample thread and none existed.

I thought it strange there wasn't a thread as well....... probally not considered special enough with all the love going to the K200/2.5!

It's also optically identical to the SMC Tak 200/4 and many more have that lens. I find my SMC tak 200/4 is not as good as the much older tak preset 200/3.5 for example. Yes it is a good lens but not great, much bigger than the M200/4 for example
