Sure there are rare Pentax lenses but they can be counted on one hand. But there are rare Nikon lenses too, I'll bet that any Nikon lens available for two years only, like the K 105mm, are hard to find as well. I'm sure many Nikon lenses are easier to find than Nikon lenses but that doesn't make Pentax lenses rare. P�l - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
