Reviews suggest it is not as good as the 24mm version, but it still looks like a good lens though.

True, but very little else is IMHO

.....oh, forgot to mention, the focus ring turns in the same direction as a genuine Pentax lens, which is convenient if you manual focus. The early ones may differ but the Synchro II designation would confirm the feature, basically any PKA or AF variant, post 1983 IIRC.

Agree with the above, has a very nice OoF rendering (bokeh) as well IMHO

They're a great lens, at the closest focus distance they'll do 1:4, one quarter life size, not true macro though. If you don't need AF the manual focus one is better built IMHO, I have both.

Worth a go with some Superglue.....you never know, it could hold.

Pleased you guys sorted out the 28-105.

Tried the Superglue, TBH I've never had much faith in it when it comes to plastic and no luck. I've got Araldite on the job now, I fixed a lot of things with epoxy resin over the years so here's hoping
