Ok but please also consider that with a lens what only can be controlled by a Pentax camera, let`s say the 2000€  150-450 without aperture ring, will loose  dramaticalliy of its value compared to a fully Manual Zeiss what can later be adapted to lot of other camera systems. So if look at Pentax as a kind of invest for the future, there is higher risk to spoil money than on Sony.

That`why I jumped to Sony and sold al my Pentax stuff last summer/autumn. If I look at he Prices I would get today I would have lost another 20%. So glad I swapped last year. used K1 are down to 1100€
