| Latest Review Posted | Meyer-Optik Orestor / Pentacon 100mm F2.8
I bought this lens quite by mistake, mostly for curiosity because it didn't cost too much and i wanted to test it against my SMC Takumar 105/2.8 ...
Well, after a few shots i changed my mind. The lens is incredibly sharp, presenting a very good contrast, although not as high as a Zeiss lens, and has a little cooler color rendering when compared to other Pentax lenses (notably, the 105/2.8).
Nevertheless, it's a joy to use on my K10D, since it is the only M42 lens from my set that perfectly meters with my camera. The bokeh is really pleasant too, most probably because of the high number of diaphragm blades. And the lens is perfectly usable wide open, IMHO, if you keep in mind the razor thin DOF at f/2.8 ...
Definitively, a good companion for my SMC Tak 105/2.8 ... |
