Discuss in the Pentax SLR Talk forum
The Pentax 15mm F4 is a beautifully constructed, tiny wideangle prime of a kind that's nowadays all too rare. The optics are very decent, with good sharpness at normal working apertures, minimal distortion, and impressive resistance to flare. The built-in sliding lens hood is a nice touch as well, but it can interfere with filter use.
