Get the 300/2.8 A*, it is a genuine bargain for $299. Then find a Pentax 1.7x AF Adapter for about a hundred bucks, and voila you will have an excellent semi-autofocus 510mm/f5 lens. It should even work fine with the *istD. I wouldn't spend $299 on a Pentax 400/5.6, not even the newest version, unless I had a buyer already lined up for it. -- John Mustarde www.photolin.com
