Hundred
July 3, 2010
Its not silver and its not a limited(but it feels like one!). But I fell in love with it nonetheless. I wanted to complete the Pentax’s Three Amigos(31,43 and 77) but it does not make sense for me to buy the 77. Its expensive and I don’t think I will be able to shoot that much with it. When the 12-24 and the 31 arrived I barely shoot with my 43(I’m not selling it though. It will be a good normal lens when the mythical Pentax FF arrived).
Since I don’t have a macro and I need a decent portrait lens I decided to buy a 100mm macro. The Tamron 90mm and Sigma 105mm is not that available here so I have only one option. And what a great option its is 
Enter the DFA 100mm WR
It’s full-frame, has rounded aperture blades(for better bokeh) and has a limited finish(won’t make me miss not having the 77). Its very light weighing only 340g. I could have gone for the Samsung clone of the DFA 100(without the rounded aperture blades and limited finish) but someone posted this on the buy and sell forum and I couldn’t find any reason not to grab this little gem.
