Other than lousy bokeh, lousy composition, and limited depth of field, I see
nothing wrong with these images.
MAAAARRRRKKKK!

I'm still not sure what the perceived problem is here. Lousy bokeh -- including
vague circles in the out of focus background -- is usually more a function of
the background than the lens. Other than lousy bokeh, lousy composition, and

As it was already said by several people, I don't see anything
that tells me about problems with the lens.
I am extremely happy with my sample of that lens.
As for the circular appearance of something in the image, that might come
from e.g. zooming in/out during the exposure.
Or, indeed, it might come from the surroundings combined with
the out-of-focus blur.
All those are just speculations, and I wouldn't even try to judge the
lens from a random photo which history you don't know (e.g. was it
modified?).

Perhaps I'm a little spooked/gun shy.
This is why I stopped using the 43/1.9.
Had two with the same type characteristic.
It was an optical design flaw - a failure on Pentax' part.
I looked through PPG for others using this same lens and could not immediately
visually identify the issue on any of them.
It seems odd that it would be random or that it would be a product
of zoom-while-shoot as that would affect all objects in the pic.
Perhaps it is that specific lens alone.
