I never had the opportunity to use it on anything else than K-r. Different autofocus system might count as well. Anyway, I described the issue I have...

Shipment from The Netherlands. I am sure we can find the most suitable way when we agree on the transaction. Each offer will be considered.
DA 17-70
External condition: very good with box and hood.
It has very common for this lense issue of hunting in low light in range of 60-70mm (at least with my K-r). The issue is well described on Internet. You can either live with it (as I did) or get it repaired. It has also zoom creep.
Price: I will consider each offer.
DA 16-45
External condition: good without hood (I use the one from DA 17-70 as it fits perfectly).
It has a small crack on the hood mounting (visible on the picture). With my K-r it has a problem to lock focus on wide end. I read, it is quite typical for this lense (and other wide lenses) on Pentax. I do not know if it will be better with K-5 or so. When I use it, I try to focus on more contrast or closer objects and it works. Anyway, description of this issue can be found on Internet.
Price: I will consider each offer.
