I traded a 21mm limited (which I enjoyed), a 70mm limited (well crafted, but rarely used due to its long focal length), and a 50mm FA (rarely used) for this lens.
At f/4.0 this lens is sharp at all focal lengths. At 20mm f/2.8 it is sharp enough, and has nice bokeh. It renders colors well, has WR and quiet DC focus, and seems to be the right size and weight for general use.
So far, so good. The sharpness of this lens is similar to that of the primes it replaces, and it has the familiar quality of construction common to the Limited series. I do not miss the old lenses.
Ricoh continues the tradition of the Pentax Limited lens.
I have enclosed some quick jpegs for members to review.
