Re: Pentax SMC 50mm f/2 M lens on modern Pentax bodies?

Purchased the DA 50/1.8 on the BlackFri sale for $91 and must say that this delivers fantastic results compared to the manual FA M 50/1.7 and FA M-A 50/2.0. With the manual FA ones, it is not just there - either the color, sharpness or even focus... not even close to the DA lens.

The colors, sharpness etc are amazing.. and at that price sure no reason not to own it.
