How interesting. I hadn't appreciated that pixel-shift would have this sort of impact. Mind you, I'm more concerned about the impact on my hard disks....!

If it is an M lens it won't close the shutter down in Av mode so you'll be stuck at f/1.7. Don't forget to "enable use of aperture ring" (or whatever the menu setting is actually called) or it won't close the lens down in any mode. Are you relying on the green hexagon or using your eyes? I found the hexagon was a bit approximate with older manual glass and did better concentrating on the image.

Well they hit their fifty so I guess you are in luck. Glad to see they are finally producing a lens in K mount, it was mildly annoying that most other things were only Nikon or Canon.

Sadly, you can say that about almost everything: bookshops, coffee shops, motorcycles... Even then, some "brands" are owned by the same corporation so the real choice is even more limited than it first appears. I don't know how true it is, but I have been told the poundstore and the 99p store are owned by the same company!

You could sell one or two to me for a profit....

Must be nice to have lenses like the 85mm working as intended. Nice images too. I'm looking forward to trying my 28mm shift on FF digital. I might not have to cut off the tops of the spires of the Abbaye aux Hommes! (I slightly regret taking my Spotmatic as my film option instead of a K-mount camera.)

Two images taken with my K-3 and a SMC Pentax 'K' 28mm f/3.5 shift lens merged in photoshop.
