Found this lens in the odds and sods box when looking for something else so decided to try it out today. I'm quite pleased with the result but... C&C's welcome.

I have one of those Pentax-A 28mm lenses, and the focal length and field of view seem to work well as an alternative "standard" lens on an APS-C camera. My only problem is with manual focusing on closer subjects, but that is me not the lens, so I recently got the auto-focus FA 28 from another member here.

Nicely shot image, and I especially like the interesting sky.

Looks decent to me

I use a 28mm Vivitar a lot so maybe I am a little bias towards the 28mm focal length
K10D, K5 plus plenty of clueless enthusiasm.

Intrigued by what else is in the odds n sods box ! I would be interested to know, how this result would compare to a digital AF kit lens ?

I quite often use an M 28f2.8 MK2 and find it is a great lens.

I've got one of these... I keep meaning to compare it to the
K Series 28mm f/3.5. Should be a decent enough lens and the
colours are usually good.
