4. ....but what about Pentax Lenses? - FM Forums - Fred Miranda

  • Nov 18, 2014 · It's a great lens, definitely a unique rendering and possibly the smoothest bokeh of any of the 50/1.2 lenses. Pentax had some great glass, some ...

  • Pentax is like Nikon in that you can use pre-autofocus lenses on today's cameras, only Pentax never successfully reached professional shooters in the autofocus era and so lacks the caché of Nikon. Personally, I keep a few Takumar lenses around for their classical rendering. If I were in the financial position to do so, I'd probably maintain a full line of their lenses. My main stumbling block is that the focus and aperture rings turn in the opposite direction of the lenses that I'm used to. Still, their older lenses are great for when you're looking for a classical rendering, and I keep 55/1.8, 105/2.8, 135/3.5, and 200/4 lenses around for that purpose. In all honesty, the Takumars I've had have been more consistent and more reliable than the Leicas I've had, and my Leicas have been through the wringer a time or two.
