Hi and welcome! Good to see another guy shooting wildlife with Pentax. I guess you might be interested in this "lens club": 300mm plus Lens Club: discuss your long lenses - PentaxForums.com

Welcome! Never heard of that lens but results are very nice. I like the second one a lot.

The lens is a simple manual lens. Under certain conditions I think he takes decent pictures)

I'm not familiar with the Danubia lens either, but I love my K-5IIs. Glad to have you as a member.

Welcome to PF.

Never heard of the Danubia 400mm lens. Perhaps you could post some images of the lens (even taken with the phone if you have nothing else) in the thread that @ZZeitg linked to? Feel free to re-post the sample images there too.

Welcome aboard. Nice series Litov.

That worked. What does the front of the lens look like? (The writing and the size of the front element might help to identify the design and who made it.) I suspect it will be one of these:
