Sharpness: 10 Aberrations: 8 Bokeh: 9 Handling: 10 Value: 10 Camera Used: ME Super, MX, Sony A7 Surprisingly sharp at all the focal lengths even at wide open Don't think that means it is worth a fortune. It does "feel" good and it's great to use in a tactile sense, but both of these factors do not take better photos.īeware! many people on some online auction sites ask a fortune for this. It's a neat and nice lens, but it's not outstanding and falls far short of prime lens equivalence. Bokeh is nearly impossible, so I don't know why so many people rated this high. In other words, you can use a 135mm and 50mm Prime Pentax M for better, sharper, images - and with a far greater mm and f-stop range - for the same price. That leaves you with the usual zoom range of minus 10% top and bottom end of the mm scale and the top and bottom f-stop. Sharpness is pretty low through the two extremes of the zoom capacity and f-stop scale. Put this on a film camera and it's good, but not outstanding. You can see the digitised images, below, and those that show editing beyond the basic image.

Many lenses are very good on digital cameras because the camera software partly compensates for sharpness and chromatic wobbles.

It's a joy to use and the pictures really sometimes feel like they have some pixie dust in em. If you're looking for a lens in this range, especially for telephoto landscapes, I'd highly recommend this lens. I'm really glad we don't use push/pull zooms anymore.īut that's about it. However this is just the compromise you get on a lens like this and it doesn't affect usability.ģ. The sharpness throughout the range is not the best. The only cons I'd really say with this lens are that:Ģ. At higher F stops the lens becomes pretty sharp corner to corner making this lens suitable for landscapes as well. Contrast out of the camera is pretty good even without editing. This lens is pretty excellent at showing depth even at higher f stops. Colors and rendering on this lens are really the star of the show. The constant F4 aperture makes using this lens pretty easy and the IQ wide open is more than acceptable throughout the range.
The weight and size are also pretty acceptable. Nothing loose or iffy in terms of build quality. For one this lens is build like an absolute unit.

I'm not usually a big fan of older manual zooms as the IQ and image rendering tend to be really poor on them. The pentax M75-150 is a very interesting zoom lens. Sharpness: 7 Aberrations: 10 Bokeh: 8 Handling: 7 Value: 10 Sharpness is a little low, but expected for an old manual zoom
