This is one of my favorite lenses on film SLR cameras, but I seldom used it on digital. Today I brought it along when we took our kids to the zoo. Took a few quick snaps w/ it, some photos turned out pretty okay. Here I'd like to post some.
This first one was shot wide open on my dad. Seems he wasn't very happy about me letting this lens go:
The following two were taken when we were watching a show. This beautiful lady sat on my left, thanks to the quiet shutter sound of K7, I managed to take these photos w/ my camera in front of me while the lens pointed to the left, kind like taking photos w/o looking at the viewfinder. First one wide open:
Second one took at F2.8:
Here is 100% crop on her eyes:
Pretty cool, aren't they?

My son had some fun there in the Zoo:
The lens can focus down to 35cm, pretty good for some closeups:
