The Voigtländer Macro APO-Lanthar 125mm F2.5 SL is available in KA mount, it's only manual focus but the big advantage is that both the focus and aperture rings work in the same directions as the Pentax lenses. It's also very compact for it's specifications due to the fact that the mechanism telescopes in three parts plus the lens focus ring turns through almost two revolutions so it's really easy to focus accurately. It is an excellent performer at far, near and macro distances. I have some pics of it beside the A100/2.8 but I'm in a bit of a mess computer wise at the moments but I'll try to find them in the next few days.
