So from 50mm up I'm fairly well covered with primes, but need to fill the 20 to 50 range gap (with couple primes or one excelent zoom).
The DFA 70-200 is also causing LBA kind of effect ...

Strictly speaking, only the Tamron 90mm f2.8 macro and the Sigma 35mm f1.4 Art. Some of my Pentax lenses may work to some degree. Not sure if the FF upgrade is worthwhile for me; would be expensive, and how much better than the K3 do I really need?

I've got lots of them since I'd shot film for years before buying my K 10, ranging from a 19mm Vivitar to a 500mm Tokina mirror. However, only two are AF. And so it goes.
That's about my situation, too. I have primes from 16mm-500mm in FF...and zooms from 24-200mm.

Ooooo!, a counting exercise! Counting is fun. I'm away from home at the moment, so from memory....

Super Tak 28/3.5
SMC 28/3.5
Sears Auto 28/2.8
Super Tak 35/3.5
MIR 37/2.8
Alpa Kilfitt Makro 40/3.5
Super Tak 50/1.4
SMC M 50/1.4
SMC M 50/1.7
SMC M 50/2
SMC A 50/1.7
Super Tak 55/2
Helios 44-4M 58/2
Sigma DG Macro 70/2.8
FA 77/1.8
Super Tak 85/1.9
SMC A Macro 100/4
SMC M 135/3.5
Sears Auto 135/2.8
Tele Tak 200/5.6

Plus a few other odds and ends that I very, very rarely ever use, like the SMC A 70-210.

I only have two lenses that I use regularly that are 'officially' incompatible: the DA15 & DA35 macro. Beautiful
lenses both and I plan to use them on the FF body when the time comes.

At present I'm trying to channel my innate LBA towards finding an ultra-wide, preferably a 20mm.

For me, the most exciting thing about a digital FF body will be the chance to again shoot 50mm as 'normal'
and for wides to be wide again. Can't wait for 28mm to feel wide again.

All my lenses are full frame, and they've all been working well on Pentax full frame cameras for many years now -- more than fifty years for the oldest of them (Super Takumar 35mm/2.0).

How well they'll work on digital full frame is a different question, and sadly it's one that I won't be able to afford to answer right away.

About 2/3rds of them seem to be FF. Funny, since I don't have any plans to "upgrade"... Not saying it will never happen, but for now I can't see any compelling reasons (for me) to go FF.

x1 = A-50/F2 (the unwanted stepchild of A-Primes). I do have the DA 35/2.4 and DA*55, which based on articles and forum posts I come across supposedly work on FF.

Er, zero. Yet somehow, for no particular reason, enjoying photography not one iota less ...

Might pick up a DFA 100 Macro WR some day, but for the time being my photo budget doesn't allow for that.

I'm not going to list them all out, just do a quick tally. And I came up with. . . 13 FF lenses, 2 crop lenses.

I prepped and have 14 that I will use for FF. The only lenses that are crop are DA 15 and DA 21 and part of the DA 12-24 which along with my DA* 60-250 will be my crossbreeds.
The lenses I miss most that were sold for lack of dark shooting are the DA 70 and the DA 40. I was hoping to get the FA 43 and FA 77 but never got around to it. Instead I ended up using the Sigma 35mm Art, DA* 55, D-FA 100 Macro and DA* 60-250 instead. I actually miss my K01/da40 combo a lot but may end up getting a K-01 again for the FA 50 1.7 which I got as my small lens w/ low light shooting so I can carry something around more often. Will need money for FF, so will have to sell my K5 II, DA21 and (possibly after testing on FF) the DA15(wow), DA12-24, FA 28 for a single cheaper manual focus wide angle lens under 35mm. I noticed I rarely if ever use anything other than infinity for wide angle. Will get a 16-20mm F2-2.8 rectilinear. Anyone know which manual focus wide angle reigns king in sharpness for FF? Samyang? Rokinon? Sigma?
1. DA12-24 (18mm+ for FF hopefully)
DA15 (apsc only)
DA21 (apsc only)
2. FA28 2.8
3. Sigma 35 1.4 DG HSM Art
4. FA50 macro
5. FA50 1.7
6. Super Tak 50 1.4
7. DA*55 1.4 AW
8. Helios 58mm 44-2
9. DFA WR 100 2.8
10. SMC Tak 105 2.8
11. SuperTak 135 2.5
12. DA*60-250 AW (Hopefully good for 70-200 FF)
13. DA*300 4
14. SMC Tak 400 5.6

I have three lenses, one of which is officially FF (SMC-A 50 f/1.7), one seems to cover FF although it wasn't designed for it (DA 35 f/2.4) and one which isn't FF compatible (18-55 WR).
