Hi all!
I want to share my experience with the 30$ lens I bought from ebay. My intial goal was to get APS-C sensor with 1080p on budget, so Idecided to get k-01 body for 316$ and some legace k-mount lens.
To my surprise k-mount dates back to the 70s which implies wide variety of compatible lenses out there. After searching for a while on ebay I found the 35-70mm f/2.8 SIGMA lense for just 30$. Given the low price tag I was expecting some issues such as dirty lens with nasty focus ring. But to my surprise this lens turned out to be mint!
Overall I am blown away with the results I am getting with these lenses. The depth of field is as shallow as it gets! And focus in movie mode is smooth and barely audible. Clearly there is no autofocus but , hey , I bought this camera because I wanted to use manual focus in the first place.
below you can see the two sample shots at 35mm and 70mm

PS
Decided to make a video to share with the world about this exciting way of getting top notch rig with minimal investment.
