still watch for a bargain-basement copy... just in case...
and I have a spare P/KA adapter, of course...
I bought one about 10 years ago. sharpest tele lens ive ever owned. Cant remember
what I paid for it, probably around $500

I currently have a mint SMC A15/3.5 and I got it cheap. I remember because I already had the takumar 15/3.5 which was expensive like $900 when I bought that in
the eighties, but I later sold it to a collector for $1700 around 2010 so it all worked out fine.

Originally posted by reh321 Why would you want a "K" lens instead of the comparable "M" lens, even if they went for the same price?
because the SMCK 28/3.5 is a spectacular lens, one of pentax best ever, and better performer than the m version. and its worth todays price imho.
