Thanks Boris,

Actually I spend enough time on the KMP site that I've downloaded a local
copy to my machine to make it faster to browse.
I also look at the Pentax Lenses Review site quite often:
http://home.att.net/~alnem/html/pentax_zooms.html
They don't mention the Takumar F 4-5.6/70-210 but do warn against the
Takumar/Pentax-F 70-200/4-5.6.
I learned about the cheaper "Takumar" AF lenses a while back, the hard way.
Bought a couple of them and sold them again within a week, found them to be
poor in build and performance.
