Thank you all and I'll include them.
The wiki links need to wait though, don't think I can find time today, sorry.

I also forgot RTFM, any good ways to write that in a propper manner, the F word is a bit of a problem. Wel not a problem for me, if it was my choise I would write full out (it's just a word afterall) but don't want to offend anyone.
Problem solved

K 8.4mm f/2.8 Fish-Eye???
M 32-39/2.8 Flexi, not that we can get it though

TAv and Sv modes, I believe and maybe the green button?
I know samsung has them too but think that's the exception.

Don't know about the Sigma but the tamron 70/300's OK.

I find mine gives better results wide open on the K110, the K200 suffers fringing.

Apart from that a good VFM lens
I thought the Tamron 70-300's suffered from purple fringing on all bodies.

Yes but the sensor can also cause chromatic aberations so there can be a difference.

Do keep in mind that the digital sensor is smaller so the angle of view changes. the 28-80mm would feel like a 42-120mm and the 70-300 a 105-450mm, the factor is 1.5x. The lenses stay the same though but they would "feel" longer because of the sensor, that's all.

another thing... the name Pentax is obviously derived from the Pentaprism.
Nope the other way around Pentax evented it so they could name it.
I believe that 7 of the 10 greatest eventions in photography came from Pentax, it would be a lost to everyone if the brand name doesn't go on.
I have done some reading and the name Pentax is derived from "PENTAprism refleX".
In 1957 Asahi introduced their first SLR with a Pentaprism and it was called the Asahi Pentax. Before that the name Pentax was not in use by the Asahi Optical Company.

Pentax isn't the inventor of the Pentaprism viewfinder, it is Contax. They introduced the Contax S in 1949.
On some markets their cameras were called Pentacon which was derived from PENTAprism and CONtax.
You probable right then, sorry
