    Thank you very much!

    How is it to use on crop? And what do you think of the performance? I've seen it mentioned together with zeiss glass - not expecting that but.

    Just going to buy it so I'll have a wide angle for my 5d, not sure it's very useful on a Pentax crop tho.

    Last, what would you pay for it?

    Hello,
    I'm thinking of getting the Soligor Wide-Auto 21. Saw you posting about it.

    Do you know how much the rear part protroudes in to the camera at infinity? Compared to say takumar 55 1,8 or 50 1,4.

    I need to know because I'm going to use it on my eos 5d. Might not be worth buying if the rear hits the mirror (as much as the 55 is good, as much as/more than the 50 1,4 not good).


    Thankful for answer

    I like 'underground comic vendor' - just like me though not a vendor but collector. Great to have you around! I am looking forward to seeing you in pentaxian profile section.
