If you want a reasonably wide view on your K-7 and a lens that
compliments the FA the only thing that fit's that I know of is the DA*
16-50mm f2.8 There will be a gap in your coverage but if you use primes
there are lots of gaps which I do often and that doesn't bother me
much.. Or you can sacrifice the short end and look for a FA*28-70mm
f2.8. I'd think the DA 17-70mm might fill the bill, except that it
apparently has a seriously compromised manual focusing ability, and it
is of course a stop slower than your FA* 80-200.

I have an SMC FA* 2.8/80-200mm zoom lens, which is excellent.
Now I need to supplement my range with something like a 150-500mm zoom lens.
Before I search for a used lens I need to know what I should be looking for.
I use K20 and K-7 bodies and I want pro quality images.
My budget will be in the neighbourhood og 1000-1500 USD.
Do you have any suggestions, based on experience?
