There are several
adaptall lenses that could fit the bill.
The 35-70mm 17A offers the same/similar specs to the pentax 35-70's cited but is much more readily and cheaply available (though the mount is extra). The 01A 35-80 has the best reputation but price is correspondingly 2-4x higher. The later 28-70mm 44A is also good. The 28-80mm 27A has mixed reviews but pics posted online suggest that good IQ is there. For more range then the 35-135mm adaptalls 22A and 40A are both worthwhile (40A generally consider better), also the 28-135mm 28A but that's a bit scarce.
If TP range is a priority then there are a number of recommendable adaptall choices but the lens often referred to as the "Swiss army knife" of lenses for its versatility is the 60-300mm 23A: good IQ across its trange and good macro mode.
Approx typical auction prices: 17A £10-30, 01A £30-80;44A £10-25, 22A/40A £10-25; 27A/28A £20-40; 23A £30-70; (UK but I would be surprised if USA was much different)
17A is common and can sometimes be picked up for next to nothing.
Mounts: PKM £5-10, PKA £35-55 PKA mounts crop up pretty regularly and I would say its not difficult to pick one up for around £40+. By and large IME I would say your chances of being unlucky and picking up a bad one are small.
