Steve,
Very confusing because the differences are pretty minimal.
Some folks claim that color rendition of the old K is special.
Others say the A's are plastic, but the coatings are improved.

They are all very good, and quite seriousy a good one of one series is
better than a average one of another series. The older ones tend to have
better build quality, the newer ones tend to have better optical quality.
That is simply a trade

It appears that Pentax makes both a 50 F1.4 SMC (52mm filter) and a

Sorry Steve if my long e-mail has been confusing.

Oh my God! A Zuiko!
