Thank you very much for your accurate and very valuable answers.

I the past, before the jump to the full frame format with the pentax k1, I considered a lot of options for sports, fauna, aviation,...one of them was the D810+nikkor 80-400. Finally I bought a pentax k1+sigma 50-500. Pentax DAF 150-450 was descarted because I needed lens shorter than 100 mm for sports in FF.

Now I'm looking for a single focus lens with high IQ and pentax DA 560 could be that lens (indeed there are no much more options).

Thank you very much for your answers.

Yes, you are true, the nikkor 80-400 did't like me very much, too expensive for its performance. What is your opinion about the cheaper nikkor 200-500 F5,6E ED VR in FX cameras?. I din't test it yet.

I'm looking for a DA 560 for sports, aviation and fauna, but previously I need to test its AF speed to be completely sure that it is the lens I need.

Excellent post.

Sometimes I do aviation photography, last time two weeks ago but I had to leave the k1+sigma 50-500 at home because of baggage limitation and I used an asp-c pentax+pentax 55-300, and I find all your explications are very interesting, mainly about the use of AF-C in K1.

I have some questions:

For aviation photography with pentax k1/k1 II:

1- Which is your favorite lens and why?
2- Which is the sharpest lens?
3- Which is the lens with fastest and more accurate focus? (sorry: this question has been answered previously, the pentax 150-450)

Thanks in advance
