Originally posted by hans pentax k-50 I'd like to get a decent long lens, zoom, thats weather proof, this sigma would work as far as size and I thinks its sealed but can't tell if it will fit the k-50. Theres the pentax 150-450 super telephoto but its $2500, little too much for me.
Any info appreciated.

Welcome to the Pentax Forums!
More specifically, the lens and camera are definitely mount compatible and I believe there are members of this forum who have experience with this combination of body and lens. What's more, I am unaware of any issues of body clearance or software/firmware incompatibility. The "Bigma" is a long-time favorite of users on this site and has had consistently favorable reviews.
