1.  Is there a separate manual for the FA* 80-200/2.8?  I'm looking
at an "SMC Pentax-FA interchangeable Lenses Operating Manual", and
it says that there is a separate manual for this lens, but I didn't
find it on the Pentax USA manual download site.

2.  What's the story with the PZ, AZ, and MODE settings on the side
of the barrel (and the push button next to the slide switch for
these settings)?  I understand that the settings are for the "power
zoom" functions.  However, what's the difference between "power
zoom" and "auto zoom"?

3.  Are there differences in how autofocus Pentax bodies work with
these settings?  Of course, if I use the 80-200/2.8 on one of my
LX's, I know that the functionality won't work.  However, if my wife
were to try the 80-200/2.8 on her ZX-5n, what could she do?  (Is
there more functionality available when the lens is mounted on, say,
a PZ-1p, for example?)

What "power zoom" functions are supported on the two digital bodies?
(Is there a difference between them in this regard?)

Please excuse my ignorance here - I'm basically just an ol' manual
focus dinosaur (but I think of myself as more of a Velociraptor
mongoliensis than as a Stegosaurus armatus - <g>).
