Thanks, Igor.
I'll take all of that into consideration. I'm still leaning toward the
77/1.8, though I can see myself possibly getting the Samyang and using
the leftover money to "invest" in other gear that could help my
photography -- lighting, flash, reflectors, etc.
I figure within the next couple of weeks, I'll have a pretty firm idea
of how much I'll be able to "invest" in this pursuit.

Walt,
While it's been almost a year since I looked at Samyang 85/1.4,
my conclusion was that all those Korean lenses (under different brand
names) have "A" setting for the Pentax version.
And the reason the photos on some distributor sites do not show that is
that they are photos of non-Pentax version.
It's been a while, since that, a few new lenses came out,
and I cannot guarantee you that it still holds, but I would assume it
would.
HTH,
Igor
PS. I was considering it the cheaper alternative at that point, but
then "pulled the plug". (I am using AF on it. So, 77/1.8 is better in
that way.)
