Sonnetar 50mm f/1.1 for Leica M

**Ash** · 09-14-2012, 04:29 AM

Anyone want one of these in a K-mount?

MS Optical Sonnetar 50mm f1.1 lens for Leica M by Miyazaki-san

Looks like a real winner of a lens. Pentax would do well to recreate a DFA 50/1.2

i couldn't agree more !

It won't be to complicated ! the DA*55 is based on the same formula of the K50/1.2 / 50/1.4, with the add of 1 element after the first 3, and with the add of 1 element at the back.

I'm sure with this formula they could do a 50 or a 55/1.2.

the Canon is sold for € 1,400, the Nikon AI-s for €700.

Definitely, Pentax could find a good price around those, for a DFA 50/1.2 DC WR
