The 24mm f2.8 was always one of my favourites on film.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Nice little family portrait there Clarky - keeping your eye out for an 85mm to plug that gap by chance?

You know me too well Hefty, an 85mm and a 20mm would feel very much at home, i'm sure
John the 24mm and the 30mm are my favorites at the moment, Such great rich colours.

The 30mm lenses are actually relatively rare, as are the other odd focal lengths in the Pentax range. Examples are the 120mm and 150mm lenses, although these are found more often that the 30mm.

The K series lenses seem to stand up to use very well indeed, presumably as all the moving parts are metal. My 55mm f1.8 shows little sign of its 30-plus years beyond slightly worn paint around the corners.
