Anyone here who knows something about this lens? Does it work with a canon 5D Mark II? Adapter M42?


I look at some of them on Ebay, and on lot of them it stood Pentax after, does that mean that only Pentax cameras can have these?

I know, a lot of stupid questions, I'm sorry, but all this technic-talk are not my cup of coffee Smile

It's a bang-for-the-buck 55mm 1.2 lens. I didn't regret it. You can put a PK-EOS adapter with focus confirm and it will be perfect for your markII. This lens is my daily workhorse. I shoot wide open 98% of the time. It's not acceptably sharp wide open but gets really sharp as you close down the aperture.

Here are samples of indoor shots mostly done with the lens.

Some outdoor shots at wide open:

Sorry i forgot to mention you have to file off a bit of the collar from the PK mount that protects the rear element so it wont interfere with the mirror.
