You forgot, David. I'm a novice. REALLY a novice. Never encountered
"PZ" before. What is it? Is it on Stan Halpin's list?


The "PZ" would actually be a FA 28-105 f/4-5.6. They were introduced at about the same time the Z/PZ series bodies were introduced.

I think the bodies were Z-series everywhere in the world except the U.S. where they were PZ-series. Same camera, different nomenclature.

They're on Stan's list as 28-105 f/4.0-5.6 FA (p), 28-105 f/4.0-5.6 FA (New) & 28-105 mm f/3.2-4.5 (Newer)

The other source for Pentax K-mount information is "Bojidar Dimitrov's Pentax K-Mount Page" - it has pictures of the lenses for you to drool over.

Stan's page has hands-on user reviews, BDimitrov has technical specs.

FA 28-105 f/4-5.6:

FA 28-105 f/3.2-4.5 AL [IF]:

... that someone else recommended because the front element doesn't rotate while focusing.
