Yes, they are here!
My set is complete now:
Pentax-110 Set by LucisPictor, on Flickr
From left: 2.8/70, 2.8/50, 2.8/24 and 2.8/18
This is what the 2.8/50 looks like on the NEX-7:

And the 2.8/70:

Two quick snaps to get a first glimpse of the character. No post-production.

I LOVE those lenses and their very special character!!
Here is what you can get with the 2.8/70 and some very basic post-production (levels, downsizing and slight re-sharpening):

It does have a focus volution. What is missing is the aperture diaphragm.
So, you only can use it wide open. But I do have something in mind... _________________ Personal forum activity on pause every now and again (due to job obligations)!

I am gathering a set of these lenses too, for use on m4/3. So far I have the 18mm only.
I was thinking of adding a fixed aperture to an adapter so I could use either wide open, or fully stopped down.
Good to see they are up to the usual Pentax high quality |

great set, congrats Carsten!
your samples of the 2.8/70 look great, made me interested in it for portraits and for that I wouldn't mind if it was f2.8 'only' _________________ my photos on flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/kuuan/collections |

Congratz!
Very nice set indeed (I have the same set as you know)
I see you're missing the 20-40mm zoom. I don't have it either, but I have the 2x Soligor converter for this set, but have never tried it
I like the 24mm very much because of it's insanely small size (also smaller than all of my c-mounts).
The samples looks good IMO and vignetting isn't that bad either.
Who's your favorite of the four? _________________ Lars | Manuellfokus.no |

Thanks.
I am not interested in the zoom, really, nor am I interested in the teleconverter.
Those four lenses compemented by the Fujian 1.7/35 built a very nice and complete set of "effect" lenses.
My favourite? Don't know yet. Need to use them more.
I like the 2.8/24, but also the 50 and the 70. The 18 is also nice, but vignettes the most. _________________ Personal forum activity on pause every now and again (due to job obligations)!

Finally lenses that don't dwarf the NEX

Yes, wider lenses gets worse vignetting but can be a nice effect also
First samples I see of this lens on the NEX _________________ Lars | Manuellfokus.no |

Indeed. And that is what I want to try soon. But I only would need it for shots outdoors when even ISO100 is too much. _________________ Personal forum activity on pause every now and again (due to job obligations)!
