Nice collection.....just nitpicking here, but there should be K50/1.2 or K55/1.8 on those bodies instead of M or A lenses

DA17-70/4 also up for sale....I will upload some photos as soon as I get to my computer
meanwhile some description: clear optics, no signs of use on lens body, comes with original hood and caps+ one replacement 67mm cap and Tiffen polarizer
regarding performance: great versatile zoom, no SDM problems, AF works nice in 17-50mm range, in 50-70 it sometimes hesitates to lock focus on K-5
I heard that is not a problem on K5II and K5IIs, but I cannot confirm that, since I have only K-5 and K10D
if you have any querie, please ask me...

The sigma is massively bigger than the FA 31mm I thought? and weighs more.

Not sure it has the same quality metal construction as well?
I held one in hand, although for Nikon mount...believe me, this is one seriously well-constructed metal lens.....feeling wise build quality matches FA31, it has even nicer focusing ring ....however time will show if it is really truth...

pity they didn't have one in Pentax mount ... i would love to make some test pics...

I totally agree, John.....i tried all three FA limiteds and also kept only FA43 ..... it is difficult lens to handle, but when light is right, its really shines...
