The 50-135 is not a heavy lens. It is however a touch on the large side (nothing compared to the 70-200 though!). I used to own the 50-135 when I had the k-3, and as someone who really doesn't like zooms very much, I'll concede that the 50-135 is a damn good lens. It's not as sharp as the FA77 (but for a zoom isn't too bad). The rendering however is pretty decent, again not as good as the FA77, but not too far off. I never had any problems with sdm whilst owning it, and was genuinely quite impressed. It wasn't however a lens I used all that often, mainly just down to its physical size. However for weddings/events, it's hard to beat.
The only reason I sold it on was that I moved to FF. If FF is your goal, then the 70-200 is probably a better choice. (Or the FA77, and just assume your legs will have to do the zooming)
