Ha ha, true. But this is due to the fact that Cosina builds it. However, it's equipped with original SMC-coating and Pentax electronics. And the optics are really cool! I like it much for that reason - but the feel is disgusting, that's true. I got mine on ebay for � 89,- So nothing to moan about. :-) > BTW, one of the things I recall from a respected former pdml member - > Roberto Burgos - is that he highly valued his FA 135/2.8, both for > optics and AF. I would also recommend to watch out for the SMC-F 135/2.8 [IF] on ebay. The internal focus makes it fast and fun! Minimal distance is 0,70 meters! Perhaps you'll like this, even if you won't get it that cheap as the 100/3.5 : http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2916203807&category=4688 BTW, the seller is a very nice guy - I got my FA 85/1.4 from him (I think it was the one, that Boz shot for his site :-) ...)
