It was mailed yesterday. Part of the reason I got it so cheap is that the seller (obviously not camera literate) did not describe it well (that happens sometimes -- they are not quite sure what they have). So there was only a side ways picture and from that I could tell it went up to f2 and he said it was a Pentax lens. I mean, normally, on ebay people say this will fit your K-1000, MX, whatever -- well, the camera literate and the camera stores do. But he didn't. Anyway it looked like a K mount not a screw mount to me. Which is all I was really worried about. And a 50mm f2 doesn't go for a lot higher on ebay, anyway. If there is a problem, the seller said I could return it in ten days and get a refund. So if he made a mistake I am covered. Thanks everyone for their feedback (and the baby picture is quite clear -- and cute!). That makes me feel a lot better. I am relieved. Now I just have to get my hands on it. :-) The ZX-5N is coming with an autofocus Pentax zoom and I will play with that too. So I will have two Pentax lenses rather than just the off-brands zooms that I now have. Thanks again, Doe aka Marnie
