Hi All,
Long time pentax user and promoter.

Just bought my self a K5IIs awaiting its delivery, Anyone else shooting with this? Im looking for a really great portrait lens to go with it, at the moment i have a Pentax M 50mm 1.7, any one have any experience with the 2?

Hi Garry, welcome to the forum!

Hope you enjoy the K5, and the M 50 1.7 is superb!!

If the M 1.7 is as good as the A 1.7 then it will be a treat. I have the M 1.4; this is good too, but not as sharp as the A 1.7, but boy does it render colours beautifully! Great for portraits.
