My last roll of Plus-X and my new-to-me Pentax M-Fisheye

http://www.hemenway.com/12042012-ZX5n-FisheyeM-Orange-Plus-X/

This lens is a 17mm prime just for the K mount Pentax film cameras. It's 
an  excellent lens and is very well built.  I used to have the screw 
mount version, but traded it a year ago to someone who did some work for 
me.  So when I wanted to get a replacement recently, I forsook my 
Spotmatics and other screw mount cameras and went for this one.

I think that it's a trifle better than my Leica-R 17mm, which was also 
made in Japan by Minolta.

Comments?
