If they made a modern version of this lens there would be Pentaxians selling their plasma to come up with the money to buy one.

By coinkydense, yesterday I paid off the credit card I used to buy the FA-600/4.

I'd like to enjoy being debt free for a little while, so hopefully Pentax won't
come out with a modern version of that lens any time soon.

As long as I have the FA-600/4 I don't "need" a 560.
