> Hello fellow Pentaxians,

Well, I prefer "Pentaxers" (but I digress...).

I had one of these for a while a number of years ago, and I don't
think it was as good a lens as either the K 135/2.5 or the M 135/3.5
(or the A* 135/1.8).  If I remember correctly, I thought the
contrast was a little low, and detail was a little lacking.  It
wasn't the worst telephoto I've ever owned, but, well, I don't own
it any more and I don't miss it - <g>.

Come to think of it, if I remember correctly, this lens had a fairly
low number of elements and/or groups, perhaps hinting that Pentax
did not put the brunt of the entire engineering staff behind this
one...
