Least useful: manual Tamron SP 90 2.5, great lens which I owned since new (my 18th birhtday present!), I just do not use it any longer, as it is facing tough competition and I do not shoot macro.
Most useful: DA 18-135, it does surprise me how many of my good (or better ) shots come form this lens.

As John noted, keep in mind that the PKA adapter is worth 40-50 GBP on its own....

I have been looking into that myself, I have the pentax DA 50-135, but it is a bit slow in focusing. So I am very interested in the opinions of other Forum members.
Currently SRS have a very good deal on the Sigma 70-200, not the latest version, but still a very good deal at 599 gbp....
If you are looking for a longer lens, they have a very good price also on the Sigma 150-500 (599 as well), but it is not as fast (aperture wise) and I do not know how it rates as a sports lens.... But it sounds as a fun lens to have
Keen to hear opinions.

Great purchase John, that's a rare opportunity to purchase a set like that, congratulations. I do find some of the comments rather strange in response to John's opening thread, maybe a little envious in some part... John has purchased a great collection & is then willing to do reviews on them too for the site, maybe some users should be a little more appreciative to others efforts for the site...
Cabstar, I agree 100% with you, especially strange on a Pentax photography site Great purchase John, that's a rare opportunity to purchase a set like that, congratulations.

I couldn't read anything negative in the original post, on the contrary.

Philip, as John Riley recently acquired an FA 77, we are eagerly waiting for his comparative review....
