I picked up one here in the marketplace for considerably less than new. Less than most used 18-135 lenses...

I made my decision. I've gone with the Pentax 16-85. I know I lose a bit of speed but I was swayed by range on offer and the optical quality (in the review I read).

Oh... it also comes attached to the end of a new Pentax K3 II !!!!!!!!!!

Ooops.
