To be quite honest I have never had any problems with the lens. I use it mostly for landscapes and architectural photography and have never noticed the problems you are describing.

Thanks for your comments. In so far as the lighthouse not being centered I honestly don't see how I could have done better. The benches are bolted down and off center please tell me how I could have done better. SpecialK I'm new to this do you mean straighten the horizon.
Thanks Ross

After a 4 months of not having used my camera I decided to venture out a couple of days ago. Must admit the weather was not the greatest, very cold and windy near the lake. I could only stay a few minutes and this is one of the photos I took, I sort of like something about it.

A big thanks to you all. It's very encouraging to hear that the K7 even though not as good as the K5 is still considered by so many to be a good camera. It's also good to hear that due to the many buttons and switches it should be fairly easy to change setting without going into the menus. All I can do is wait and see.

hcc and AOShep:
Thanks so very much for taking the time to reply.
The reason why the K7 appealed to me was first the build like a small tank quality, It's many features and lastly but most important I already have a few lenses and that allowed me to only purchase the body. The fact that the K7 has been replaced makes it a bargain when comparing it to other similar offerings from the big two. I don't have the camera at the moment it should be here in the next few days, considering that it was selling for $1200 till a couple of months ago and can now be had for just 70$ more than the body of a D90( FINE CAMERA BY THE WAY) makes the K7 a no brainer.
I just hope that the learning curve won't be to bad

I have been using a ist DL2 for the last few years. I don't consider myself to be a novice but at the same time not a pro either. Although the above camera has served me well in every way I think that it's time for me to upgrade and I'm really not sure what direction to take. I like the K7 build quality and all of the feature it has to offer, but at the same time I feel that it could be to much camera in relation to my skills level. I would like opinions of other members who might have made a similar transition going from entry level Pentax to the K7 or K5. Should I just go for it and learn as a go along or would the Kr be better suited for my skill level. I would like my next camera to allow me to grow with it and at the same time not make me think of upgrading for at least the next 5 years or so. The cost is not the issue in any way I'm just afraid that coming from the easy to use ist DL2 the K7 might just overwhelm me with all of it's settings, function and features.
Thanks Ross

Thanks for your reply Just1MoreDave.
I have no use for the lens, so I just wanted to get some idea of it's value. Would I be out of line asking $200 for it.

What is the fair value for the above lens in mint original condition. The lens was purchased in 1975 and has not been used in the last 35 years. Is this lens any good and can it be used in newer Pentax DSLR, if it helps it was used with a Fujica ST 701.
Thanks Ross

Let me first say Hi to everyone:
This is my first post on this Forum, which I think is great by the way.
I purchased a Pentax *ist DL2 with the two lens kit 18-55mm and 50-200 last year. I primarily do landscaping and would like to give a more serious try to taking portraits have been looking on line for a new wide angle lens ,and a good prime better than the 18-55 lens and the choices are a bit overwhelming for a novice like me .Can I get some help please. Do I stay with Pentax or are there better value lenses out there.
I Thank you all in advance for any imput.
Ross
