It is a *great* lens optically, and what's more, it's mechanical construction is simply magnificent. Manual focus at its finest. Brilliant optics. A joy to hold and use. Anyone who has a K-series camera (K1000, KM, KX, K2) owes it to themselves to get this lens. Mike Johnston sold one (recently, I think) for about $100.00 US so your Canadian price seems like a great deal. -- Original Message -- >Guys I'm eyeing this lens.
