Yes, I did. I don't think I had them both at the same time though, so I couldn't do any side-by-side comparisons under the same circumstances. I liked the A 20/2.8, particularly for its relatively small size and easy usability, and was perfectly happy with it. But optically I noticed a distinct difference between it and the CZ equivalent, and I prefer the CZ lens. I felt that the CZ had a clarity and crispness that the Pentax lacked, and in general I prefer the colour rendition of CZ lenses. -- Cheers, Bob
