some other photographers who love Pentax as much as I do.

I say "Some guy got a 85mm F1.4 on craigslist, with numerous other lenses, for under 500 dollars"

And I just get stared at like I'm crazy for thinking this is amazing...

my wife gives me the same look when I talk about the bokeh of my 50mm 1.7...

I never bother discussing such things...I know people don't care.

Same deal with conversing about crossover points, speaker specs, etc.

Even not being technical, people just glaze over.

That's why I'm here

Edit: Wisconsin?

Whereabouts?

Hah! I've had friends who'd just laugh at me, when I'd twitter, etc that the bokeh on my FA77 makes me happy inside.
