If only the K-01 had a viewfinder, I'd own one!
Agree. I dont like the aesthetics very much but, the concept is fantastic EXCEPT for the lack of EFV. What were they thinking???

Nice copy - I too have a soft spot for the M40 - fills a (very small) space in my travelling kit.

Not totally sold on 40mm as a focal length on APS-C to be honest and, I havent used it on film. Im sure I'll start using it more often but, it may go on the marketplace as I have a DA 40 limited so, this is superfluous. Its a beautiful looking lens though with a great feel to it.

In which case yes it is superfluous. But it is a useful focal length when you pair it with the 15 or the 21 as it provides a little more reach for not much more space when travelling. An ungripped body with these lenses is almost pocketable and very unobtrusive.

So, I had a fun day rolling around the thrift shops. Picked all this fun stuff up for only $10. Had to run to work right after, so didn't get to test any of it. Will do that when I get home tonight.

Haha. I'll try and make my own tags if I need to. Thanks again for the other tags though.

The force is weak with this one!
Pentax MF primes are a real bargain a lot of the time. I suppose its because they made so damn many of them. I REALLY need to clean the dust out of my storage room too by the looks of it











Just realised the MZ-M needs a MF lens

Aside from the gear posted in this thread, I so enjoyed the way Pentaxians shoot their gear.
Great product shots! Great technique! I am so inspired to those shots like you guys did.
