Thanks Dave.
From memory there is a Pentax 67 45mm lens. I used a guide with reviews about each to chose from. The 55mm F4, 165mm F2.8 and
300mm F4 get good reviews. The 300mm F4 EDIF is the best but its a long focal length for a camera lens, rare and expensive - about US$1500 to $2000. But see Marco's wonderful images using one. I have the 55 F4 the 165 F2.8 and the 300 F4 (non EDIF). They all seem sharp but the 165mm seems to me to be the best of those 3.
My PL16803 is twice the size of 35mm format almost so I suppose there is a negative figure you apply like -1.9 or something compared to 35mm format lenses. It seems pretty wide at 55mm. Probably similar to the field of view of about 18mm with my 40D.
Greg.
