I can see that. Ironically, going to the K-1 has revived my interest in manual focus as well. I'm using the 150-450 with the A2xS converter, and shooting with the A 50/1.3 and SMC 85/1.8 as well. Good fun even if it's a challenge for my old eyes. Forty years ago I could pull focus on a car at 200 mph, now I'm lucky if I can focus on a tree stump. But photography is still a joy.
The manual focus assist, focus peaking and the fact that astrotracer now seems to work with MF lenses has certainly changed my attitude about MF glass. I've been thinking about a couple of the samyang lenses lately, specifically the 24/1.4 and the 85/1.4. I do suspect that an 85/1.4 will likely be one of the first lenses brought back into the lineup though.
