Hi Paul ...
You've posted some interesting and useful alternatives to some of
those hard-to-find Pentax lenses, but as tempting as they may be,
I'd much rather have the Pentax glass. All the lenses of a series
have the same feel, the focus all turn in the same direction, and,
arguably, the build quality of the SMCP lenses is superior to some,
if not all, of the alternatives.
The hunt for good quality, hard to find lenses is also part of the
fun, and when you've finally found that elusive lens, a certain
feeling of satisfaction manifests itself.
I'm pleased to say that I have every focal length from a 20mm
through 300mm (with the exception of the 40mm and the 30mm), and
it's quite a pleasure having and using those lenses, as well as
thinking back on what lengths it took to get them. I'm happy ...
