I don't have any primes with fungus . . . yet.
I did have a couple of zooms with fungus but I've cleaned them, re-tested them, and sold them.
If/When I get an infected prime you'll be the first to hear about it Jack.

Now if you blame the coloured puffs then its a different matter.

The latest version of RawTherapee (v.2.4.1) supports both K-7 and K-x PEF . . .
It's of no matter to me anyway, I use Lightroom.

Peter, do you use this for PEF or DNG files please? When I try to open a PEF file the software crashes!
I don't actually use it, I just gave it a trial. It is able to open .PEF's that have been converted to .DNG's in Lightroom though. I haven't tried .DNG's straight from the camera.

Depending on the time of day you go, the Bigma will be long enough but may not be fast enough.
I'd go with the 50-135mm personally and get as close as you can without falling in.
A shutter speed of 1/320 or faster will freeze the action and you may have to use ISO 400/800 to get a decent aperture.
The short answer is try both lenses.
