Apart from the obvious 18-55/50-200 WR lenses which other lenses are weather sealed for use on a K5 ?

The 18-135, and I believe all the *lenses are WR.

The Pentax 17-70, whilst not WR is pretty well sealed - mine has withstood Pacific Northwest downpours, freezing snow (which turned to ice on the lens, and sun, sea and sand.

Can recommend the 18-135mm lens, very good lens.

No the reviews aren't good. But then they often aren't good for anything Pentax.
It is a good lens, better than I expected it to be tbh, and works really well on the K-5.
