Right now, with a great help from Boris, I'm bidding on a 28MM 2.8 CSJ
I really hope that it worth the trouble to get your credit card over the
net...
otherwise i will come back looking for a cheap M42 Russian lens like Mir
or something like that at the local photo-junk stores.
BTW... tomorrow will be my first time (after more then 15 years) to develop
a B/W film myself (with a friend) and I'm kind of excited about it :)
I really hope that this Ilford HP5, which is loaded in the camera now,
will make
the same performances as the Fuji ProPlus II i use for the color shots...
Also, I've got a stock of Kodak TriX 400ISO films...
Anyway, if anyone has a written, step by step explanation about manually
developing a b/w film, i will really appreciate to have it too
Thanks a lot ALL for helping me to choose a lens!!!

My girlfriend has a Vivitar 19/3.5 (for yashica, but I think it is
also available for pentax K).
I'm not able to tell if it is a good lens or not, but from what I saw
it seems to ship contrasty (?) pics and is also well flare-resistant
(even with the sun in the pic flare are few).
Oh, I paid for it 100 euros (used, of course)...
I understand the original poster was looking for a wider lens than a
24, rigth?
hope this can help,
Danilo.
I had for some times Vivitar 19/3.8 on KA mount but I got rid of it
very quiqly. Yes, it is cheap, I got mine for $70-80 bit the
performence of the lens is poor - the resolution is bad, I don't think
that it is well fare corrected.
I happy now with Flektogon 20/2.8 & Sigma 24/2.8.
