| Latest Review Posted | SMC Pentax-M 85mm F2
Well, like many before me, I purchased this lens because of Jshermans photo's :o
He really seems to be able to get the most out of any lens, which becomes quite costly to us *normal* people :lol:
I call this lens the poor man's 77mm ltd.... its qualities are incredible. Every shot I take with it looks great and has the *pop* you get with much more expensive lenses. Its bokeh is very pleasing in most cases, and its sharpness is unreal wideopen. It is extraordinarily small and compact for such a lens meaning it goes with me everywhere. F/2 is not the fastest by any means but is not slow either. My negatives are all me nitpicking since I really can't find anything wrong with it :cool: Anyways im not good at talking so I'll let the lens talk for itself:
Just to show how sharp the m 85mm is I give you massive crops from the K200d (10mp)......
