DA Limited on Film
Have you ever wonder how Pentax DA Limited lenses working on the film SLR cameras? Boris Liberman has collected a bunch of photos made with three DA Limited lenses mounted on the 35mm film SLR.
Pentax DA 21mm Limited shows a strong vignetting at every apperture up to F/22 while DA 40mm Limited and DA 70mm Limited are quite good even wide open.

This is good to know. I’ve been hesitant to invest in good “DX” lenses because someday, we might all be able to afford full frame cameras.

I think, “crop mode” will be implemented in the future Pentax full frame DSLRs. So only central part of the sensor will be utilized with DA lenses. Hope this feature could be turned off manually.
