Nikon 77mm cap not included and shown only for size preference.

I'm asking $140 OBO shipped and paypaled! Priced pretty well considering the adapter alone goes for $40-50. I have 42 positive feedback here in the cafe and 100% positive feedback on eBay (jdm_b20). PM with any questions, thanks for looking!

Do have any sample photos taken with these lenses on your m4/3 camera? Is there any vignetting with any of them? This seems like a fun set and I'm really interested to see what kind of images these lenses can produce. Please let me know.
Thanks
Paul

Sorry I dont have any samples right now as I am at work. There is a thread on here on these lenses. Just search "Pentax 110". I can reassure you, there is no vignetting when mounted on my EP-2.

18mm

I have a Pentax auto 110 : 18mm lens on my G1 and for that lens the picture is crisp and clear with no vignetting at all.

Just commenting. :smile:

I vouched for these lens. Mine is the 70mm version. Adapter is from RJ and lens hood is legacy PEN F.

Picture below taken at one of UNESCO's World Heritage Site hand-held on my E-P2 (ASA200 f2.8 1/320)

RAW development on Olympus Viewer 2.0. No touch-ups as I have not gone round to Photoshops or the like yet.

Try magnifying picture to check whether the sharpness is acceptable to you.

waves tend to turn into a tsunami as it pick up speeds......the initial wave and the one that hits you is 1000s larger....till then.....show more of the lens capability...hee hee

This looks interesting to me. My only question is concerning the diaphragms of these lenses- Am I correct in assuming they have none? If that's the case, how does one adjust f stop? Is there a mechanism in the adapter, or are the lenses limited to just the one f stop on the lens?

 

[kiynook]

haa haa....normally the more expensive zoom lens have constant f-stop....in this case, the Pentax 110 are primes with constant f-stop too...

My workflow for legacy lens is still the same, i.e. select the f stop I want to get a specified DOF but in this case I save this step. Next I use EV Comp to avoid blow-ups shown on the histogram display.

This lens will always put bokeh in your pictures so I use it for portrait shots.

The focusing is as light as a feather.

Below is my Pentax 110 lens which is one of my favorite legacy lens with the Olympus PEN F hood mounted. It looks cool...

Yupe my E-P2 as you would have noticed has been used quite a lot...it has been to beaches, hills, indoors, outdoors and even tropical rain...
