I've got the K30 f2.8 which I'd use more if Pentax had made an A version
or still supported the aperture simulator. It's only a stop faster than
the FA 20-35mm which is much more convenient when metering on Pentax'
DSLRs and as far as I can tell just as sharp. So the K30 rides the
shelf more often than it rides a camera. Which is a shame since it was
the best ~28mm lens that Pentax made in the manual focus film era, and
makes for a nice 43mm equivalent when using a DSLR.

I'm not using them right now. For the last 15 months I've been driving
from California to South America, and I have with me the K5, K01, and
my FA and DA lenses. The awesome manual focus stuff is stored back in
the Bay Area.
I'll be flying to CA in a couple of weeks, and then I will pick up the
K3. I'll probably bring at least the K24/3.5 and K30/2.8 with me then.

What camera are you using your K and M lenses on?

That is me.
But given the lack of quick focus shift, I think I'll be ok with the other
lenses around that focal length I already have: FA28/2.8, K30/2.8, FA35/2.
Heck, I even have the M28/3.5 and the M35/2.8.
Maybe I have too many lenses as it is :)

If so, I think it will be a lens you will find happiness with.
