Yes ! The DA 70mm F2.4... If you remove the lens hood, it's nearly as compact as the DA 40mm F2.8
Hi Frederic

Yes the 70 is also small all the DA Ltd's are .
It's hard finding the one you want in the bag
The FA 35 looks nice too
Can not buy new in Australia for some reason

Attempt to use new K-1

Finally took the new K-1 out in nature to the ledges in Peninsula, Ohio. Not sure if the camera or lens is faulty, but could not get most images to focus correctly. This is just a random image from the hike. Not very good. Just a tree that has figured out how to grow out of rock by holding on. My first post in these forums.

Which lens are you using?

I use manual focus with the LED viewfinder most of the time (the magnified view is accurate), with the camera on a tripod, and I use a remote shutter release, with the electronic shutter on. But the auto focus is very good for hand held shots. Many variables affect focusing accuracy. I use manual settings to try to manage those. The settings for this photo were f/18, 1/100 sec., ISO 400, with fill flash. There was a slight breeze that affected the accuracy.

Keep using it, it took me a while to figure it out. I learn something new each time I use it.

Floyd.
