Thanks Bob. I loved the M24~35 for film but I suspect its glory days are gone. As a lens for cropped format its angles of view would be a bit ordinary. Keeping it in the hope of a 24mm X 36mm Pentax DSLR might not work out so well as it has a rather small exit pupil which goes against the current thinking WRT telecentric optical design, besides which it has no A position.
OTOH it may be one of those rare lenses that performs as well on a DSLR as it did on a film SLR. We won't know until/unless a digital 24 x 36 Pentax arrives.
