| | I first used the lens as a Sony FE mount version and sold away to get the K1 in early 2016. Just bought it again in August 2018.
The lens although a little heavy, is easy to handle and very quiet. It is really very sharp wide open and I am really enjoying the bokeh that it produces. K1FT1608 by Felix Tan, on Flickr K1FT2244 by Felix Tan, on Flickr Apple025 by Felix Tan, on Flickr

| | Great damping on the focus and (de-clicked) aperture rings.
Just enough focus throw and resistance to make focusing a breeze.
Sharp wide open.
Great low light performance, pleasing bokeh and amazing subject isolation.
Wonderful colors and rendering.
Weighs like depleted uranium.
Has nothing to do with taking a picture, but this lens makes for a gor-jus lens/camera combo film or digital.
Works well with Pentax ME Super film camera also: | |
