Just a quick question. Does anyone own the plastic fantastic DA 35 2.4. And using it with a K1 ? Using it in full frame mode. How well does it perform ? How much of the image circle is covered ? Thanks....

There's some examples here: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/58315474
You'll note there is a tiny bit of vignetting and softness in the corners, but not bad at all unless those aspects are important.

Thanks for that John.. I have just come across one second hand at a good price. No I dont expect it to be pefect. As it is after all an APSC lens.. But I thought I remembered people saying it was nearly there. Just wanted to remind myself how close.. I thought it would also save a bit of weight for street togging rather than the DFA 24-70 if not as versatile...
