It seems like it's a little better than the Pentax 24mm f/2, but not a whole lot. Less distortion, a little less vignetting, the center sharpness is very good on both, but the Pentax pulls ahead, but the corner sharpness on the Nikon gets better faster. CA is about the same. Build quality is probably better on the Nikon.
Is the difference worth two more stars (twice as many)? <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' /> I have the Pentax, and I'm very happy with it, bokeh is good, sharpness is very good I think (I have newer lenses that are very sharp).
