Ok.. Just wondering because I was watching a video by a photographer, Tony Northrup, who said that a full frame lens on a crop sensor camera changes an f1.4 to about a f4 on a crop sensor. I've never heard anyone say that before. I know that the 77 mm has to be multiplied by 1.5 on a crop sensor and creates a tighter field of view but I didn't think if affect anything else.


Also, Will autofocus work on this lens with my k3 or would it be totally manual focus?


Trying to make a wise decision for my next lens purchase while I wait to be able to afford to go full frame.


Thanks for all your help and advice.

I am assuming that the 85mm becomes more like a 127 mm on a K3 crop sensor. What about the f1.4? Does it affect that?

The FA 77mm would essentially be 117 mm on a k3. Do you use it on a full frame camera or on a crop sensor camera? If you use this lens on
a crop sensor camera, how else does it affect the shot?

Is your sigma f1.4 85mm full frame lens or crop sensor lens?

Thanks for all the information, opinions and photo examples. Sounds like I need to get out there and do more shots and work on my technique.


I am considering adding a new lens for my K3 or a going full frame with the K1, though.


Thanks again.

What would be the best lens to purchase to get the most pleasing bokeh for portraits with the Pentax K3. I have a 16-85mm Pentax lens and a very inexpensive 50 mm f1.8 lens. I can get a little bokeh with the 16 -85 if I stand far from the subject and shoot at 85mm. I have difficulty producing a nice bokeh with the 50 mm lens on my K3. I've had better bokeh with the 50 mm on my Pentax Kr. Could be user error. Any suggestions about camera settings or other lenses.


Really trying to decide if I should invest in the Pentax K1 with the 24mm-70mm lens or just buy a nicer lens for my Pentax K3.


Please advise and send picture file samples.


Thank you.
