The Pentax 50/135/2.8 is a superb lens for the APS-C cameras like the K-3 version 3. lOn the K-3 it yields approximately the save field as view as the much heavier, much more expensive 80-200/2.8. This copy, which was used lightly a few years ago, appears to be in excellent condition. Love this lens as a walk around companion. But like many of my lenses, it must go now. The least expensive copy on eBay is $246. The priciest is $390. I’ll take $200 plus shipping from a fellow lister. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/nrbrstr60soqsiggas2qj/50-135-2.6.c.jpg?rlkey=cps7umt39c5o3vcdnpehu67eu&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/9apncx1gdvoi6m02y04oq/50-135-2.8.a.jpg?rlkey=ike4hxtlnsvbabkd1mzf6rcfl&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/spd12skrne31vrq662l4q/50-135-2.8.b.?rlkey=aju1c14we3a1vruuehb40crmu&dl=0

It works well but vignettes in full- frame mode. I have used it full frame on the K-2 , however, since you still get more image than in crop mode.
