Bob, if you like the 24mm length like I do it was one
of my favorite lens until it stopped zooming. It is

Mine rotates 180 deg to the left and 90 right. When
rotated to the left it will also tilt up so you point
it at an umbrella over your head.
BTW, has anyone put one of those flash extender

I don't know the details of the specific Pentax macro

internal focus. So some IF lens change focal length at
close distances as a means of focusing. So what may be

Yes, there is no routine maintenance recommended for
the P645 series. Pentax service says to use it until
it breaks down. BTW, I have been not-so-seriously
looking for a backup P645 body in not-so-good cosmetic
