I'm really asking myself that question right now. Don't get me wrong, it's a gorgeous lens, and the short zoom range makes it like an extended range standard lens, it's sharp and has nice bokeh.. The problem is it's big, and at 2/3 of a pound, it isn't light, though it certainly isn't as heavy as it looks, and it's slow. OTOH, it say Pentax on the bezel and for me that is generally enough. I just turn off the rational part of my brain and let the bit that is attracted to shiny things make the important decisions.
