p.1 #16 · p.1 #16 · Leica R90/2 (non APO ASPH) v. Pentax 77 Ltd v Leica 90/2.8 | |
As you already know well, the 77ltd is unique for an AF SLR lens (size, build, rendition).
MF wise, its more loose compared to a full MF lens, but certainly more damped than other FA series non ltd lenses.
Certainly fine for MF imo (YMMV)
The throw is sufficient to not coarsely miss focus and there is the high contrast of the Pentax lenses that somehow gives a very WYSIWYG focus confirmation between EVF/peaking and actual focus.
This is not something that I can say is the same across lenses, esp the lower contrast old ones (non-Pentax).
Use wise, its really an in-between of 50mm and a 85mm on FF.
The working distance to subject, the type of distance to subject that gives good bokeh and isolation.
As such, a bit more versatile if just used as a walkabout lens as opposed to a 85mm, but a bit more shy a working distance for street shooting than a 50mm.
Great for everything imo.
Very nice lens and so portable that it gets brought out very often.
The latter being really something that I value a lot and is often hard to mention as a pro when discussing lenses on forums.
