Make that it extends another 2.5 inches or so at 250 mm. Brain fade.
Although it's a substantial lens, it's relatively compact. And it's
built like a tank.

It has a tripod mount. It's easily removable, so I leave it off for
hand holding. The only time I've used it on a tripod was when
testing/adjusting the autofocus. It's easily handholdable. Feels
good. At 60mm, it's about the same length as the DA*50-135, but a
bit fatter. It extends another seven inches or so at 250mm. The
extension is solid as a rock. Zero wobble. I find it's a natural in
terms of handhold. It balances beautifully with the K20D and battery
grip.

Can you give us more insight on the handling and usage? Does it have
a tripod mount? Do you use it on a tripod or monopod? How hand
holdable is it, etc...we can see the imaging capability, but would be
great to know it's handling.
