Smooth bokeh. Hard to tell about sharpness.

I've had a quick look at these pics in Lightroom @ 100%, and I honestly hope that these samples aren't accurate. In the out of focus areas, there is severe purple fringing on the chrome elements of the helmet, and an incredible lack of microcontrast on the strap itself. My gut says that these are actually FA 50mm f1.4 samples based on my use of the M 50mm f1.4 lens, a lot of the characteristics seem to match. Hopefully this is true, because that amount of fringing on a * lens is unacceptable nowadays IMHO.

It was only 1 pic, and therefore - my LR had not recognized the exif from it, but also - I have not noticed any purple fringing.

The lens ID is not identified by PhotoME. If the lens were the smc Pentax-FA 50mm f/1.4, the lens ID would be identified as such, wouldn't it?
