Nice find, I bought one of mine at a similar price, the current prices
that they often acheive at auction these days seems absurd as
compared. Interestingly the current Pentax lens catalogue from Japan
indicates that they are still a current product.

Cheap no, it loves f2.8 lenses, anything slower and the AF may become
a bit flaky in anything but great light.
