Most welcome. I was very tempted about the ZF 2/100mm myself and got it, had very good results in terms of handling, ease of focusing (a breeze actually - sharp focus "pops" in) esp. when rapid action is needed, but then I noticed in my wide open macros that OOF CA issue.

Thanks Orio!! Yes, it was somewhat of a long windy road to get my Pentax KA mount version. I first purchased an M42 version in Japan in Mint condition; then I found someone who was willing to buy it off me for whatever price up to a certain point for which I could purchase the PK version. I then went on Pentaxforums and asked if there was anyone willing to sell one to me. Found one person, bought it, then sold the M42 version to the other person (for $50 less because my M42 didn't have the hood, the PK version did).

That other person, btw, has posted here a couple times, and he will be getting the EF version which I got for him (sorta), again from Japan.


Right now, it seems Japan is where you should look if you want one of these. They're going for slightly cheaper (even considering the high Yen) there than on Ebay.
