I use S-M-C 50mm f/1.4, SMC 55mm f/1.8, S-T 105mm f/2.8, S-M-C 120mm f/2.8, and S-M-C 150mm f/4. All have that gorgeous Pentax color. Sharpness in decreasing order 150, 55, 50/120 tied, 105 (but it improves a lot stopped down and open is great for portraiture). All suffer from some degree of chromatic aberration on digital but they usually correct well and if not are great in monochrome. The longer lenses have pretty low maximum magnification but I usually use them with a helicoid adapter that solves that problem. All in all, wonderful lenses.
I have pictures from the 150, 120, and 55 in the Zf adapted lenses thread.
