Originally posted by UncleVanya I’m also conflicted. My Sony A7Riii kit includes a 24-105, the 28 f2, and the 85 f1.8. As well as a Sony wide angle attachment for the 28 that makes it a 20mm f2.8. I had hoped to supplement these and get double duty from my Pentax glass but the long delay, price increase over initial projections, slow and limited communication from this product designer have blunted my initial enthusiasm for this product.
I’d love to hear more about your experience with the 45 in another thread.
This being a Pentax Forum, I seldom want to say much, many are very sensitive about postings saying BrandX being better for some aspects, though in fact I probably own more lenses than most like all the Pentax 85mm and even the Takumar 100/2.
I seldom post elsewhere (and less so anywhere nowadays)
My take on the 45, its so cheap for what it does that its a "just get it".
Cheap, small, lightweight, versatile 50'ish focal length, center sharp wide open and sharp stopped down (for all normal uses), good oof.
The AF of the A7iii justifies it further.
