Well, thank you, Prieni and Fiona for your educative comments - useful for a beginner, like me. And thank you PE again for another good laugh. To the rest of you apologies for reviving a dead thread.

Now look what you have done PE, another 1st post! Thank you for a very good laugh.

PE is not sending us up. He is merely questioning the wisdom of our beloved Pentax and their decision to make a toy lens.

As one who has already tried this crap I fear he might be right! -just the 58
and yes you can get a 52 as well. Maybe I got a bummer. Maybe I should send it back and ask for a 52mm instead......

Greetings all
