Re: the first pentax screwmount shot on digital??????

[Mat Maessen]

The lenses at the top of the page (Zeiss Jena, Jupiter, Industar) aren't 
very sharp lenses by design. And the shutter speed on the shot w/ the 
Takumar is slow. The one taken with the Jupiter 9 is pretty darn sharp 
in the large version though. I do love the bokeh on that lens...

While the noise performance of these pix are pretty
good ( at least as good as film ), the sharpness isnt
very impressive.  How big is the SD-9 sensor in Megapixels??
