It's well built, especially for a lens that has a plastic lens barrel.
It has the second best manual focus feel that I've
experienced on an autofocus lens, and the zoom ring is very well damped
and smooth. The optical results
are excellent on either film or digital.

Hi Gang ...
Having used John Celio's FAJ 18~35 yesterday, and having found the focal
range to be very nice (reminds me a bit of the M24~35 that I like so much),
I'm thinking that I might want to get one after the replacement DS arrives
and I've had some time to use it. This seems to be a well regarded lens
here on the list.
Does anyone who is planning to attend the Pentax Pixel Party, or the Anti
Pixel Party, have one of these puppies (Godfrey, Juan?) that I could
examine for a bit?
Any comments on the build quality and construction from anyone else?
