The big Tokina should perform ok though again it is a full manual lens. Still can be used like the Itorex on a Pentax dslr but a bit of a hastle.
The Pentax 28mm A series lens allows you to use it on a Pentax dslr using aperture priority mode. Basically the A series can communicate with the camera in regards to the opening and closing of the aperture blades. This makes it easier to use then the other 2. Just pop camera into aperture priority mode and you can control the aperture using the ring around the lens. The camera will automatically set the shutter speed. You will need to manual focus. It is a lens worth hanging onto for sure.

Thnakyou for the info, so basically, they're only good if it doesn't cost the earth to refurb this one, apart from the Pentax A lens. hmmm roll on next month when the bonus comes in from work then!
I do quite like this little quirky camera, I miss having 'actual photos' sometimes. Perhaps its worth popping into town to the local camera shop which has been there for years and find out how much it will cost to get it back to condition again.
