SRS Microsystems UK had arranged for a Pentax Open day at their Watford branch. I realised it this morning and rushed to try my hands on their new toys.
There were many gadgets including sports optics and Pentax staff were present to assist us. I tried out DA 60-250/f4, DA 55/f1.4 & AF 160FC ring flash. It was very crowded with very eager people wanting to try them, hence to be fair to all, did not test very extensively.

DA 60-250/f4 -- (250mm, 1/100, f4.0, ISO 200) 
DA 60-250/f4 -- (68mm, 1/100, f8.0, ISO 1600) 
AF 160FC Ring Flash on 100mm Macro lens 
SRS are taking £20 deposits for DA60-250/f4 lens (expected price to be betwen £800 & £900) and they are expecting it to be available in April. Quite liked this lens, but it had a very hard zoom ring. DA 55/1.4 and Ring Flash are already on sale at SRS.
When enquired, Pentax staff had no clue about PMA.
