Will if you look at other Pentax sites it's called DA and not DA-l, they don't know it either how to call it I think
The review section on the Other Forum called it DA-L until about a week ago.

I whised they have called it a DA-L though, it has everything it needs for it.
It has a plastic mount, no hood and no quick-shift.
Ah well.

The DA35 ltd is an intersting lens to discuss, certainly because the DA 40 ltd isn't that far from it.
At least it's a limited and you never need to worry about quality then.

The DA35 can do macro but the DA40 is just a bit sharper in the corners and the bokeh is a bit smoother. Also since it isn't a macro it will focus faster but it's a small lens to manual focus with though.

here are two comparable photos where you can see the Bokeh.

I saw it before i went to bed and I thought to myself, I'm so lucky right now, I actually also thought he meant the DA35 f/2.4 because that's the newer lens after all.
And no i didn't bribe him (or how do you call it).
