at KEH? $59?? Thats incredible. They usually are on the high end price wise. You stole it! From my tests with the screwmount version I've found it to be an awesome lens. Pentax didnt put out "cheap" quality in those days and this design proves it. BTW, it's VERY rare in screwmount and I was very happy to finally get on e for $200 a few years ago on ebay. I havent seen another one since! JCO
