Just seen this lens in a local second hand shop for £50 (about $79), looks pretty clean. I just wondered if you think it's worth picking it up for that...

Already have the following:


SMC Pentax-M 1:1.7 50MM
Sigma DG 1:4-5.6 70-300mm
Sigma APO 1:5-6.3 170-500MM
SMC Pentax DA II 1:3.5 −5.6 18-55MM WR (K5 Kit Lens)
SMC Pentax DA II 1:3.5 −5.6 18-55MM (K200D Kit Lens)
SMC Pentax DA 1:3.5 −5.6 18-55MM (K100D Kit Lens)

Pentax K5
Pentax K200D
Pentax K100D Super

Thanks in advance..

That's a fair price for the lens, perhaps maybe even a few bucks below the average used price: SMC Pentax-DA L 50-200mm F4-5.6 ED Reviews - DA L Zoom Lenses - Pentax Lens Reviews & Lens Database

If you already have a 70-300mm I don't see why you'd want a 50-200mm, though, as the IQ really won't be any better. Why not get rid of a kit lens or two and replace it with the DA 35mm or some other prime/lens?
