Thanks, P.J.

I'm sure it would cost more to repair than to replace given the damage. The focus is completely locked up on it -- I can't get it to even budge. And there's a severe dent in the lens barrel at the filter threads. She's absolute toast, I'm afraid.

Sorry to hear that, you could always try sending it off the Kirk at http://pentaxs.com/ for a repair estimate. He was able to bring my A 24mm f2.8 back from the dead. It's probably not worth it for a lens that you can sometimes pick up for as little as $50.00 though.

Well, all I can say is that I'm utterly crestfallen today. Seems I dropped my K-x with the A 50/1.7 -- leaving the lens inoperable and irreparable. This is the last shot that will ever be taken with it.

I think it's fair to say I'm heartbroken.
