I do worry about getting a worse replacement. But If it's not optically as good, I'll just get a refund and spend the money on a Fuji 50-140... Now that would be ironic!

Absolutely none whatsoever.
There's a guy called Damien Lovegrove who pretty much obliterates anyone's arguments for FF with the quality of his photos. He doesn't have to say a word.
The size, weight and cost are just too much of a compromise for little if any actual or practical image quality improvement.

Originally posted by One3rdEV I have the opposite opinion: If it is optically excellent (bonus = and optimally tuned for your camera body), then keep it. If the SDM fails- then make that the responsibility of Pentax under warranty. (It is possible that Precision may be out of the picture sometime this year).
But that sorta pre-supposes that good copies are an exception and not the rule... I'm trying to have some faith in Pentax here!!!
