Superb lens at a really good price - I'll be surprised if this doesn't get snapped up quickly

I second that....this lens is optically beautiful. Hidden gem in Pentax lineup...maybe one day it will have cult status like those beautiful Super-Takumar 50s

This works fine on my K1 in FF mode. I'm pretty sure its on the list of compatible lenses.
On a very basic test just now, only slight corner darkening with the hood on, but I'm having to look for it (it may actually be darker clouds in my shot, hard to tell). From f4 onwards I struggle to see it when using hood.
Without the hood I see no issues, so perhaps a smaller hood would suffice. I see someone suggests using a generic hood for a DA55-300 and trimming in down to size to get round this.
Regards
George

Works pretty well with K-1, gives very little viniet and optically it's a gem.
