From pentax there are several 85mm lenses, the M85/2 is supposed to cost about ?150,-. I'm not sure if you'd call that reasonable... If you're willing to buy third party lenses: I can heartily recommend the Tamron SP90 1:2,5 macro.
I have both the M85/2 and the Tamron SP90 Macro (only the newer, AF-design but MF, f2.8 version). If I was to lose one it would be the M; the Tamron is an exceptional lens for sharpness and handling by my poor standards, and, being a Macro, it focuses close.
