Yesterday I was saying that the M28 2,8 that I have is quite poor sharpness-wise but today I shot exclusively at F.5.6 and F8. Images such as those below when the subject is close delivers good optical quality.

For street shooting however its pretty poor at F11 / F16 but I might just hold on to it after all for its F5.6 quality.

superb

It obviously performs pretty well stopped down then?

Presumably its pretty good wide open compared to the mediocre 28mm 2.8?

Thanks David.

Thats exactly the reason for centering the lady.

Just the man!

Would love to see some of your 28 3.5 examples

Ive come to realise that its the DA series that I want to invest in...

The lenses that I am interested in are the DA 21 40 and the 70

If you have one of these lenses and want to offload them for a REASONABLE price please get in contact

cheers

Anyone know of any other old manual lens or any other K mounts that would suit my street stuff?

Im finally understanding the rendering issues that old lenses have - some of them struggle with front lighting and CA etc but I think they are fab to use

The DA 35 2.4 is a great lens and might opt for it if theres one going cheap on here
