Having read this thread with interest, I would say the 60-250 is your
best bet but it is not cheap. You could add a 1.4x too! Paul had great
success with this combination. I have an FA 100-300 which I used before
I acquired an HD 55-300. Despite the glowing reviews for the 55-300, I
have found it no better than the under-rated 100-300 which can be had
for a song.
The 60-250 doesn't cover the full frame. It is possible it is baffled
down to APS-C, in which case there would be a rear hood that might be
removable. I sold mine, and I really don't recall what the back end
looked like.

Subject: Looking for an ready to carry long ff lens
Going to full frame, I no longer have a lens for the k1 to fill the
niche of my 18-250, being reasonably long, if not particularly fast, but
will still fit in my camera bag and not weigh a ton.
The da 55-300, despite nominally being an aps lens seems to do ok on ff.
Is there anything even better, preferably not too expensive?
