I know you asked about lenses other than K-mount, but ...
The A100/2.8 goes < $200 on eBay. There's one from GB listd right now. It's just a
little long, but still very good for bust shots. And the contrasty A coatings help.
Interestingly, M100/2.8 lenses, with slightly warmer coatings, have been going for
more.
I may give the M75-150 a go for a portrait. It's reasonably sharp and a good range,
with optimum sharpness definitely from 80-120mm.
Sincerely,
C. Brendemuehl
