Thanks for the heads-up, Steven!
I've got a little time to do a little more saving-up. If I can manage to
save enough dough, I'll definitely put that in the "possibilities" pile.

A K28 3.5. Really sharp. They can be had at KEH for a reasonable
price. MF, but no big deal for landscapes.

I'd like to have something wider for landscapes. I have a Takumar 28/2.8,

it's really a pretty crappy lens compared to the others.
What would be the best, most affordable option -- best bang for the lowest
buck

and IQ
i like my 16-45 pretty well, but perhaps that's because it's all i have
wider than 24mm; it is not a "fine" lens, but it is a very useful lens
however, your budget is tight enough, and the trip sounds short enough, that
i'd consider renting a lens; i can't recommend a rental service, but i've
considered it myself; most i've seen carry only Pentax lenses in K-mount but
at least one (cameralensrentals.com) carries some Sigma; at borrowlenses.com
i see 16-50/2.8, 12-24/4, 14/2.8 and 15/4
the 14/2.8 was cheapest at $38 for two weeks (again, not recommending, just
checking prices)
