200 lenses! Hahaha!! That cracks me up for some reason.

I own almost the whole Pentax-M series and few K's (17, 24, 30, 50/1.2, 135/2.5, and 200/2.5).

I usually take them out one at a time and make do with focal length restrictions. Right now I've got the M150 mounted... I'm doing the Daily Challenge and an working through my whole collection.

If I had to pick my top three, they'd be M20, M50/1.4, and mmmm... K30 for sharpness or M28/3.5 for size.

At the moment Im loving my Revuenon 55mm F1.2 although I wish I hd an A7 rather than an A6000 as the crop factor makes it slightly longer than Id like. My other fave is my Pentax K30 2.8, love the colours this one gives me...

I see k28/3.5 made it on most of your lists..That's my favorite for macinery/vehicles sharpness and colour is so awesome.

Yeah, the blues seem to get a little more intense on mine. Very nice.

For my A7 I use M20, M35 f2, M50 f1.7, M85, and for macro A50 f2.8 and M100. The M20 gets the most use.
