I use Av most of the time though.
I think it is perfectly in order to avail oneself of some or all of the cameras automation capabilities. We did buy the technology to use it, after all.
We'd all be going around with MX's else. Oh, come to think of it, many here do.

Buy a K7 + grip + 2 lens kit and start from there.
He'll also need one or more of the following:- Memory cards, flash, tripod & head, polarizing filter(s), Arctic Butterfly, a decent waterproof bag, Adobe Lightroom, Adobe Photoshop Elements, decent spec. PC, decent spec. notebook/netbook.

There seem to be a lot of Pentax 100mm DFA Macro for sale on eBay for £299 at the mo. At this price, I'm just surprised they are still for sale! Clicky
I haven't tried it yet, lens and I about 1000 miles apart, but if it lives up to expectations there could well be an SMCP-FA 100mm Macro available soon.

So no, they are not the same thing at all.
