Originally posted by house Those that claim that they don't see much pf with dfa100 must be photographing some rather limited and controlled scenes. Their views on any lens should be taken with a grain of salt from now on. Pentax own material is now clear evidence that reeds on the ground is enough for a festival of purple.
Something of a stretch, there.
Originally posted by UncleVanya I have rarely seen it. That doesn’t mean that I don’t know squat. It does mean that Pentax found a good torture test image to show off their improvements.
Unless the Japanese text accompanying the photos tells us otherwise, we can probably assume the comparison shots were taken at maximum aperture.
Obviously, any optical improvement is to be welcomed, especially if it isn’t accompanied by a large increase in price.
