DA 55-300 best value zoom you will find with some quality. any of the 90-105mm macro lenses(pentax,sigma,or tamron). looks like you have decided on the prime. if you don,t want to be changing lenses often then the next best zoom is tamron or pentax 18-250mm if you can find one .welcome to the wonderful world of pentax

thanks ColK10, that one is a Super Takumar and he is also selling the one i am looking at which is an SMC Super Takumar. i assumed the SMC was the last model before the K mount and may be better quality. alledgedly in mint condition.
i take your comments on board as well Ken, not even a minty for £100 then, that,s ok i can wait. thanks everybody
