Pentax 24mm lens comparison

These images were shot with an *ist-D using four Pentax lenses - FA* 24mm f2, A 24mm f2.8, DA 16-45mm f4.0 @24mm, FA 24-90mm@24mm - to assess comparative sharpness and CA (purple fringing). The only postprocessing done was levels adjustment and resizing to 1200x800 pixels.

i will love to see a bokah test between these. sharpness is nice, but i actually tend to put bokah quality and "3d effect" ahead. i'm really curious about the 24mm on a digital body. if it happens, please post. thanks!

Did you compare the SMC 24mm F2, I have a 24mm on my Pentax ME Super, and this 24mm is for me a real beauty, but I would like to see how it compares to new lenses....

Thanks
