I got the long glass, just been waiting for the K1 part. Of course it won't be as long with the K-1. above all else we know Pentax knows how to make long glass and the arrival of the k1 is just
a signal that some of the classic long glass is needed again.
One of the most delightful (but really rare masterpieces of long glass in the Pentax-A 400 f/2.8. It's only about 13 inches long but is a master piece. with a 1.4x TC is comes out as a 560mm f4 or if you slam a 2x
converter on it..... 800mm... and still good speed. Just one of those under appreciated lenses Add auto focus to it, and it's killer. the extra focal length makes a based for the TC to get out there, and the speed
means you can hang a TC on there and still expect the Auto focus to work. and it's small enough to fit in your airplane carry on luggage.
