I feel that your requirements are not consistent. If you are after a "low light lens " and "Low light is a huge concern for me with zooms", you must ook for some prime lenses with a large aperture (f1.4 or f 1.8).
Practicaly, you may need to refine your requirements and needs. What is most important to you? In low light conditions, do you want to shoot without a flash? Or are you prepared to buy an external flash?
For example, it is better often to shoot at children and babies without flash.
In the former (no flash), your answer is a fast prime lens and most likely MF. There are some excellent K-mount fast primes. In particular, the Pentax FA50mm f1.4, the older Pentax 50mm f1.7, Carl Zeiss 50mm f1.4, Voigtlander Nokton 58mm f1.4, ....
In the latter (flash), you may consider a f2.8 or f2.0 lens like the Tamron, but you must invest in an external flash.
I hope that the comment will help you...:rolleyes:
