The K-1000 will accept any K mount lens ever made, even the new Auto Focus ones ( it just won't autofocus ), Tamron has a 24-135mm lens but there are many 28-105mm lenses out there. To find lenses any camera store that deals with 35mm SLRs will have them, pawn shops too. You already have 2 good basic prime lenses, the 50mm and the 28mm, a 200mm F4 should not be hard to find nor should it be to expensive either, alother option is a 135mm lens, there are many of these around to for cheap.
