I use my A*200 on a K-3, I don't have a K-1.

Congratulations. I love that camera. I think Len has been using his with
the A* 200 macro. I use the K 85/1'8 now and then and the A 50/1.2. It's
quite easy to focus manually, with the in-foxes light being quite
accurate. I use the D FA lenses for the most part: the 24-70/2.8, the
15-30/2.8 and the 150-450/ 4-5.6. I also use the DA* 60-250/4 quite
often. It vignettes just a bit, and I shoot in crop mode if I'm in a
situation where I don't want to deal with that.

I finally bit the bullet and put in an order for a K-1 today. I went
with the 28-105 lens since the 24-70 overlaps so much with the Tamron
28-75 that I already have. I'm looking forward to seeing how the K-1
performs with some old film era lenses - the FA 50 f1.7, F28 f2.8, A*
200 macro, Sigma EX 70-200 f2.8 (1st generation) and FA 20-30 f4 zoom in
particular. I'm hoping that the first generation SIgma lens does not
have the mounting issue that the current version has (I found one
comment on Pentax Forums that said it did not, but you never know). I'm
not all that optimistic about the FA 20-35 but we'll see.
I've been doing some more stacked macros in the past couple weeks and
the tought that I could be doing these with a much more capable camera
than my K3 just got to be over bearing...
