I am not ducking anything, I "IGNORE" at LOT of the posts Because people are already complaining I post too much on this.
I got into Pentax K ( previously only had scremounts ) Around 1990. I did not need or want AF because I don't like The way they feel for MF and I prefer MF for what I do. ( I don't do sports or any fast moving stuff ). Hence, the only thing available that meet my criterion Was used. So no I did not buy any K/M lenses new because That was before my time, but it doesn't mean that's not What I like and wanted.

I also asked you two similar questions, neither of which you answered So, for the last time, in even simpler terms, over the years, how many new K and M lenses have you purchased from a retailer? Don't duck the issue. BTW, it seems that the resale value of the older lenses is holding up quite well. The fact that they can be used on the DSLR bodies seems to have strengthened their value.
