Ernesto Mantaras Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Hi. Where can you buy that Wesley lens, may I ask? I haven't found any results when searching for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigbuckley Posted January 18, 2013 Author Share Posted January 18, 2013 I looked all over ebay but there are none that i can find for $80. They are all in the $200 range. I'm from the US too. The one you sent me, the seller can't recieve funds at this time so you can't buy it from him, and thats the only $80 one on their for pentax 25mm 1.4 Any other suggestionS?

craigbuckley Posted January 19, 2013 Author Share Posted January 19, 2013 would it be stupid to get that lens AND the pentax 25mm? Are they pretty similar? I just have heard such good things about the pentax 25mm and seen videos that look awesome so I guess I was sold on that but if you think this lens will be good as well then I will trust you.

craigbuckley Posted January 19, 2013 Author Share Posted January 19, 2013 I guess to better rephrase that, would you spend more to get the pentax? Or just go and get this fujinan? Is the pentax worth the $60 more? Would it be stupid to have both of these lenses? Thanks and again and sorry for all the questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy lee Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 these is maybe a small percentage difference but not much the pentax has good contrast and nice blacks both have the swirly Bokeh both are cheap so get both if you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
