Hi Andre Thanks for the reply, looks like a great lens: focus ring turns in the same direction as a Pentax lens, 67mm filter thread common to Pentax users, compact, light, no zoom creep, great optical performance, apparently better than the Tokina and Sigma lenses WOW!
My only concern being the aperture ring as the new Pentax digital lenses do not have them, many thanks for posting the link to the manual.
