I just thought I'd pass along this endorsement for this super little lens in case any of you are looking for the best 50mm prime on the market for under a C-note! Here's the stats and reviews from the Pentax Forum: It has the fairly new SMC-SP lens coating to which Pentax attributes the lenses amazing color characteristics. They're now available for under $100.00 and it's worth every single penny! Outstandingly sharp, the color rendition and saturation is mind-blowing and the bokeh from it's seven rounded aperture blades is absolutely stellar! This little lens is so sharp, you can crop your images drastically and it almost will serve as a macro lens! Yep, it's THAT sharp! Actually, almost TOO sharp for use as a portrait lens! I don't know how many of you Pentaxians have the SMC Pentax-DA 50mm f:1.8 lens, but if you don't, you're missing out on one of the most outstanding lenses Pentax has offered in many, many years!
