The older Pentax SMC manual focus lenses will fit as well.

Remember also that Tokina is now making Pentax's lenses so you shouldn't see any drop-off in quality from what you would expect with a Pentax AF lens by going with a less expensive Tokina.
Yeah, but there still aren't nearly as many lenses out there for the Pentax bodies as there are for the others. Like I said, I love mine and like the options I have on it, but for people buying in to a system new right now I'd suggest the two big boys.
