Thank you both for the kind words.
Yes, the K-10D is not famous for its higher ISO.
These were all shot at ISO 100 and the shutter was around 1.5-3 secs.
On a tripod of course.
Aperture was near wide for some but around f8 for others.
I forgot to take my glasses with me so I was guessing the aperture by the number of clicks.
Cheers

It has a projecting back element that is troublesome to mirrors around the infinity position, and this has caused it to be less loved among the 1.4/50's around.
Notwithstanding, it is a rather good lens and produces very nice images.
Even wide open, its images are very pleasing.
These are straight off the camera with no PP and all shot wide open at f1.4
Pretty good I think

Thanks for the info. Seems like a nice lens, except for the protruding rear.
