It's hard to tell what's causing the flare on the 21mm HD building shot.
It might be made worse by reflecting off the glass on the building.
It's also summer so I assume the sun would be stronger, but that
would depend on the exact location.

The cheap ones are probably soft aluminium. The genuine ones
seem to be the same metal as the Pentax mount in the camera.

Glad your happy..... but if ever you feel the urge....
you could always ask Honda to make a 3.2 Litre version!

I'm sure they will oblige!

Ricehigh's just posted a link to some photos taken with
a Pentax K-5iiS + NEW 21mm HD. Looking at them I can't
imagine why anyone would need anything better

Some good samples of other Pentax/Ricoh gear...

You could take two shots and stitch them together to
make a FF shot

I've never seen any in the stores. I'm surprised they are listed
Whoops! Just ordered 2 by mistake

They seem to have removed their check availability widget
I suppose they can do that now that they are a monopoly with
Comet gone!

Sorting out details with robbec for one adapter so the
other is still available.

I've just been looking for some tripod bits and found these two
in a drawer. I'd forgotten all about them and already have another
couple in my bag... so these are surplus.

They work with any M42 lens and Pentax K body. MF only plus
the aperture has to be set on the lens.

Excellent condition boxes slightly scuffed, but complete.

£33 EACH inc. 'RM First Class Signed For' to the UK.

I'd have to get a price for postage to Europe.

Payment by Paypal with buyer paying all fees
or Bank Transfer.
