It depends on your experience with this type of lenses and the quality of the lens itself; but if you really are on to it, manual focus that is, a
split focusing screen is a must have, highly preferable to the one that comes with your camera; also a
magnified eyepiece, like the Pentax O-ME53, is a great help too. So be prepared to spent more money on this. All those people shooting in manual lenses will tell you that. Don't go for the manual lens just because it looks "professional". Autofocus lens are great too, and unbeatable if you need to be fast to catch the subject; furthermore, if you want to shoot manual, put your camera/lens in manual mode.
Some members have advised you to go for the Tammy 28-75 2.8; it's a great lens but I bet it will cost you 3 or 4 times the price of the 18-55 kit lens.
