Leandros S and potentially others who might comment similarly,

Thanks for your feedback. However, please understand that I need advice and comments targeted to my objectives, which are (1) I do not want to use non Pentax lens on my K-5 or future K-3 (2) I do not want 18-200mm or 16-300mm zoom, even Pentax makes one on its own or get it sourced from Tamron, Sigma or whoever. The 16/18 to 85/135mm is what I want (3) Weather sealed (5) Best plastic construction -- use of some metal may not be feasible in this price range.

Hey, don't start going all Canon and Nikon and whatnot and then complain about others going off topic, ey? If you read my comment again, you'll see I was precisely replying to points that you'd made. If you put something on the table, it will get eaten.

There's no bad bokeh, just background that's too close.
