At www.Photodo.com one can read: Manufacturer's Description: "The unique smc P-FA zoom 250-600mm F5.6 lens provides a moderately long zoom to extremely long zoom range. It features a fixed aperture setting of 5.6 throughout the zoom range and uses a 43mm rear filter. An internal focusing system ensures faster and smoother focusing while a high-refraction extra low dispersion (ED) glass element produces high-resolution, high-contrast images with true-to-life color rendition. This lens is great for capturing candid shots from a distance."
Wasn't this lens originally designed for baseball? I didn't know it had a fixed aperture @ 5.6!

Would anyone happen to be lucky enough to posess or even have the chance to test out the legendary FA*250-600/5.6 Mega Zoom from Pentax? I'm seriously considering obtaining one I've located, but the jury is still out on whether it will perform on digital in the same leaque as its little cousins FA*80-200/2.8 and FA* 28-70/2.8. The price is right (so to speak) at slightly over 3K, but I still have questions.
