Suggestion for the PUG: one month, we should ask for only pictures made with
one particular Pentax lens. It would be interesting to see what everybody
does with a normal lens, for instance.
Just as no Pentax-lover should be without a Spotmatic, nobody should be
without one great fast 50mm. Even the Pentax 50/2 is a very good, borderline
great lens, and they're so cheap as to be almost free. The 50/1.7 is even
better, and the 50/1.4s better still (IMNSHO). There is simply no reason not
to own one or another of them.
