How does the DA*300 work with the K-1? Not sure if it is a viable choice.

The DA*300mm works perfectly on the K1. It is a FF optical design and as such there is no vignetting when used in FF mode. It is an old design as far as the FF motor is concerned so wont be as snappy as the newer D-FA lenses, but it is a great lens.

Since acquiring the K1 I have sold the DA70mm. A very nice lens but one I had no more need for.

The DA40mm however will always be in my bag.

What is manual focus like on this beast ?

Since Pentax PDAF sensors are f2.8ish on a good day, no matter how quiet and powerful etc the focus motors are, surely it won't auto focus well at f1.4 on any existing Pentax body ?

Don't know until we get our hands on one It has a large focus ring however and given the weight of the lens I think it should manually focus just fine. Someone may let you know in a few weeks.

i don't have problems using AF with the FA 50mm 1.4 or the FA* 85mm 1.4. Why would this be different ?

Focus-shift may be an issue, but that is a potential problem with any fast lens.

Bless them. Have not seen one since I was a kid. A species under threat I fear.

Answer 1. All your current lenses can be used on the K1 in crop mode, where the K1 will just use an aps-c sized portion of the sensor. This may be useful to you if you cannot acquire FF lenses just yet.

Answer2. Some aps-c designated lenses can be used on the K1 in FF with no or little vignetting. Others cannot.

So the question back to you is what lenses do you have?

Yep, last one is my favourite.
