The D FA 21mm does not merely "renders beautifully"; it seems to be in another league compared to "pedestrian" lenses like the Sony and the Nikon.
The Sony does rely on software corrections. I didn't say distortion correction; this is about vignetting, which doesn't get away even at f/5.6.
I said much easier to make, not simpler. The Sony being a 20mm f/1.8 is feasible because it's a mirrorless lens.
And anyway, I'm paying the money - not you; so why do you care?
You project onto others a lot, it seems...
Where do you get that "another league" from? Just from the Pentax PR blurb?
No, the Sony does not rely on software corrections, just like any/all wide angle lens, just like this Pentax will show, even at f5.6. Perhaps the Sony will show a bit more just because the optics are closer to the sensor, but that has nothing to do with the lens and its quality (just with the sensor and the angle the light hits the mirco lenses).
Why is a lens with more elements "much easier to make"? Because it is a stop faster?
And where is the mirror in that Pentax lens, by the way?
Why is it about you paying money, according to you?
Questions, questions, questions....
