Note: My 100th post! I love this forum, and I love Pentax, its lenses and photography itsely (well, that part is implied!).
Thanks for the suggestions. With a more general approach to lightweight prime kits, I think more people could apply to this discussion. I know it's been gone over a thousand times, but I love thinking about high quality, lightweight Pentax primes.
The following lenses I think could all be excellent components of a lightweight prime kit (trying not to make this just a list of all Pentax lenses!), depending of course on the photography of the owner:
- DA 15/4 Limited
- DA 21/3.2 Limited
- K 30/2.8
- FA 35/2
- DA 35/2.8 Limited
- Voigtlander 40/2
- DA 40/2.8 Limited
- FA 43/1.9 Limited
- F 50/1.4 (Or other small fast 50/58 of choice)
- DA 70/2.4 Limited OR FA 77/1.8 Limited
- 90-105 range macro (Lightweight)
- F 135/2.8
- Voigtlander 180/4
- F*300/4.5
(I know this is meant to be only Pentaxes, I put in the V's because they are so popular, and good quality).
Does anyone have any comments or further suggestions? I know this sounds awfully like an LBA session, but I really am trying to think about lightweight primes here.
Although I admit it does give me a tingle to think about all of these.
