This is a fantastic general purpose short telephoto prime good for many scenarios.
I got it because of a coming trip, and bad shoulder / back necessitating the lightest possible camera gear. So, my Pentax selection is the 77mm f1.8 with the K3 III and 35mm macro * Limited. This was the first test of the 77mm.
I tried several likely scenarios - normal distances, macro, and scenic. All were incredible. The macro / closeup in particular were amazing. The mushrooms are about 80% of the original image - very difficult to render the detail in white. A minimal amount of touch up was done on my iPad mini. The highlight detail is just beautiful.
The flower is about 25% of the original, again minimal touch up. The detail, color is just spot on. This lens is capable of gorgeous color, detail, and fidelity. The scenics was great, as well, but shot on an overcast day with nothing spectacular. What is interesting though is the detail.
Anyone looking for a portrait or great walking around lens can not go wrong with this lens. Paired with the K3, and maybe the 35mm macro you have a perfect hiking / backpack kit that is light weight and good for most scenarios.

Size: HD FA 77mm 1.8 Limited*: BlackVerified Purchase
This was my first Pentax limited series lens that I have bought after shooting for the past 3 years on a Pentax K-1. Once I saw that Pentax was releasing updated coatings for the original FA series limited lenses I decided to buy the 77mm for portraits. I have attached some images from shooting downtown these past few weeks. I have enjoyed the lens so far for portraits and for some street photography. The craftsmanship of the lens is fantastic. The all metal build gives this lens a retro and premium feel. The Bokeh is beautiful and circular. The only grip that I had was the auto focus motor was a bit louder than my DFA 28-105 lens, but not nearly as loud as the DA 50mm f1.8 that I was previously using for portraits. Overall the Autofocus was snappy and accurate, and I never experienced any hunting. The manual focus ring is perfectly dampened adding a premium feel to the lens. I look forward to picking up the 31mm and the 43mm limited lenses next. I would recommend this lens to anyone looking to do portraits on the full frame Pentax system. Truly a piece of Pentax history modernized.
