Yes, but Rob has been in the market since 1988, and in Australia, and
before the internet, and perhaps buying new. Not many Pentax lenses are
worth more than they were new.

Then you overpaid. That's your fault, not Pentax's. Every lens I bought
in the last three years is worth at least what I paid for it. And we've
know for at least three years that Pentax was most likely going APS-C.
It wasn't a secret

yourself happy and buy the Canon.
There is no way that my lenses will return me more than I purchased
them for,
it would be lovely if that were the case but it's not. I've compared my
purchase prices with the current market values and it just ain't so. If
I had a
drawer full of FA80-200/2.8 zooms that may be the case but I don't. So
basically I'm well behind where I would have been had I not purchased
Pentax
kit over the last few years plain and simple.
