Yeah, I can see I'm going to need a hood on all these lenses.

Just took a few shots with the 28-85mm -- some of them were terribly washed out.

Walt, get a lens hood for the ones you want to increase contrast with.

So far, it seems to be sharper than the 50 f/2 I got in the same lot --
though, it's highly possible that's a consequence of user error.

 From what I gather, the coatings on these lenses aren't all that good. I
just wonder if bumping the in-body saturation a bit on them would be the way
to go, or just wait to bump it up in LR.

Normal lenses are the most likely lenses to be high quality optically,
even in bargain brands, 135mm is probably the next most likely. It was hard
to find a really bad one, and since they went out of favor you can find some
real bargains.

K20D, f/6.7, 1/640 sec, ISO 500

Had to bump up the contrast just a smidge, but all in all, not too
shabby. I'd say it's worth the $50 I spent on the entire lot of lenses.
