Or, the Tokina 17 f3.5 manual focus. Available new for 229.00. It is the only non-Pentax lens I would replace if lost or stolen (I had one stolen in 95). To me, it is a "poor mans" 15. Very sharp at f8 and very low distortion. Regards, Bob Rapp - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
