No sense to compare 11 mm with 12 mm and 18 mm with 24 mm focal length. It's some kind of trick.:)
1 mm is serious difference for ultra-wide angle lenses.
I hope we will see direct comparison in review here (at PF) at 12-18 mm range.It will be honest.
I think the difference will be very low, especially, at centre.

I don't see that it's a lot better in terms of resolution....Slightly - yes

No bashing at all
I judge by Russian Pentax club. Not a lot users and many users changed FA35 to FA31 or Sigma 30/1.4. Or even to manual lenses.
As for me, 6 apetrure blades confused me many years ago...FA35/2 is not bad lense...It's sharp. But rather ordinary.

I don't think that FA35/2 was popular lens for Pentaxians...I doubt that HD version will be more popular...

I'm not a engineer of Ricoh...
By the way, ABC coating is better if I understand right.

PF's articles say that you are not right...Really effect on reflection. Work against sun and starburst are reflections.

HD coating doesn't effect on resolution and improve IQ in terms of better contrast and sharpness.

Why not? Let DC motor be...
To produce DA*11-18 for 1400 USD is economical sense? :)
FA35/2 is cheaper than HD FA35/2.0 in USA....Pay attention.
$289.95 vs $399.95
But it's rather expensive in Europe...It's hard to understand price policy...
Aperture of FA35 is the same, by the way

They could put PLM in HD FA35/2, for example...

Thank you...But this lens is 2.5-3 stars from 5. I don't want to see the same lens without any changing, but with HD coating only...:)

I read old and new articles about HD...It kills a lot of reflections....

HD coating is the real killer for light stars...Easy to see at the official samples...Is it good?

Show me your f2.8-5.6 RAW from K-1, please. And we can discuss it. I had used at K-5IIs.

New HD FA35 is cheaper than old one...Hard to say if it's good or not...They could use other optical glass to reduce the price...

My copy was good....But triangular bokeh is no good...I'd like to see better sharpness at 2.8 and better resolution at f4-5.6 in the edges..
Pay attention that F28 is different lens. Not the same as FA28.
I tried FA28 and F28 before purchase.
FA28 iwas not better. 6 apertures blades and softer than F28.

1400 USD is transcendental price...
HD FA35/2 - Number of Diaphragm Blades 6.: it's all we need to know....
