Yes, I have one, and really like it on the K-1, very easy to handhold as it's not that big or heavy, you can easily move and swing it around when a bird appears out of the blue. It is easy to use for extended periods. Fits in a backpack and it again, light enough to trek to locations with.
I find the AF quick and it locks on well, I use it for for catching BiF pics, and the odd shot at the moon.
I like the fact that it has a built in filter rotation collar, so as when you put in the CPL you can rotate it. (With the FA* Teles, you have to find a FA*CPL drawer, and they are rarer than hens teeth). The DA560 has a small wheel on the drawer to rotate the CPL.
It's not WR or anything, but to be honest, thats not an issue to me. I do however use a neoprene sleeve right at the mount area, covers the mounting to the camera, goes over the top of the filter drawer, just to keep any dust out.
I like it. I like it a lot. but..
I find, myself using the DFA150-450 more though, due to it's faster focus, weather resistance and the zoom is really much more usable when chasing birds and other wildlife, out and about.
