Seems quite an underappreciated lens but it has a lot going for it. Constant f4 aperture is useful. Compact (49mm filter thread) and handles well along with good sharpness and contrast. Photos taken on a Pentax K-x.

Lens is capable of being very very sharp, the second photo is a crop, certainly outresolves this sensor. Colours have Pentax richness and really I don't know how I would replace it for a medium telezoom while keeping the F4 aperture and the small size. |

Just noticed this thread and indeed after initial tests of only close up and for short distances under 15ft........this is a very good zoom.
