Ok, people are going to laugh at my endless ignorance. It seems my second lens in my 2 lens selection may also be a good one to use for general stuff and I didn't look at it until you all talked about using the 50mm ones. I always wrote it off as "the cheap one that came with the camera" which was an old Pentax 35mm Super Program that I inherited. Apparently this 50mm
SMC Pentax-A 50mm F1.4 Reviews - A Prime Lenses - Pentax Lens Reviews & Lens Database does not come with that camera and was stupid expensive when it was new. Silly me. Well now at least I have another nice lens to use. Thankfully it basically never got used by me plus it had a cheap clear filter screwed into it so its still like new. I like that its another all metal one like my bigger lens, the retro "Honeywell Pentax" lens cap is nifty too. Mine doesn't have the funky hood of the one in the pic though.
YAY I have 2 good lenses now. This seems to be like the cylinder index for gear-heads (number of total internal combustion cylinders in every engine you own added up) My lens index is 2!
EDIT: I keep hearing about "Pentax prime" this and " Pentax prime" that, which I was told is simply a fixed zoom or something rather than adjustable. Does this other lense qualify as a nifty 50mm Pentax prime lens then? Nevermind, just re-read the review on it, duh, one again that ignorance showing.
