You can find it for about half this figure, Zos. However I should warn you

It's not a particularly strong lens optically either, at the wide end
the old A24/2.8 runs rings around it when comparing distortion,
contrast and resolution. It's not a lens that I would recommend.
When they would focus I did not have much griped about the ones I used
to have. Unfortunately, this is the only Pentax lens that covers the
standard focal lengths (wide to short tele) that both covers full frame
and goes to 24 mm on the wide end. If 24 mm is mandatory, Sigma
24-60/2.8 is by far the superior choice, IMHO.
