I am sorry ,but I would never buy this lens. Unless Pentax put in the camera tha ability to run from screw mount via firmware. But I am not sure this lens can run from screw mount. SO they can keep it, it is ashame cuz the image quality is there. Maybe they need to use a better motor.

Yes, it can run from screwmount with a DIY firmware update.  Search this forum or Google it, there are lots of posts on it.
