Hey Aaron and all who chimed in,
Thanks for all the feedback. I'm leaning towards a 200/2.8 but I'm gonna
start with a 135/2.5 since that's what I can afford right now. That'll give
me time to hunt for an A*200/2.8 or keep saving for the FA*200/2.8 (which
focuses closer anyways). The 77/1.8 sure seems like a gem of a lens and I
think I'd like to get one of those as well. Maybe by the time I get up the
cash for it, Pentax will have made a body to match <G>
