I've seen a few go on the dreaded auction site recently here in the UK, I got chance yesterday to use it for the first time on the K10D, it usualy gets left at home because of the Tamron 28-75. I can clearly see why you like this lens Godfrey, I'm very pleased with the performance especially the flat field characteristics, even at the closest focusing distance.
