I recently bought the new DA 55-300 f4.5-6.3 ED PLM WR RE and although I have only taken about a dozen photos around the house, find it a solid addition to the lens offerings.
The lens is quiet and fast focusing, and it does not seem to hunt, all benefits over the older 55-300 screw-drive versions. It is decently balanced on the K-3ii, but the zoom is pretty stiff and not smooth -- hopefully this will improve a bit with use.
I only have a couple of photos to post, but expect much more compelling photographs coming from it!
Pentax K-3ii, 190mm, f/5.6, 1/50, ISO 1600
Pentax K-3ii, 260mm, f/6.3, 1/13, ISO 200
