of the lot you have listed above the f2.8 tamron or sigma look very interesting as does the 50-500! any idea of the prices on these lenses?

the pentax 50-135 is not long enough and $1000 to boot.
The Sigma 50-500, aptly called as the BIGMA, retails for around $1000.
The other two are expected in the same price bracket too. (but still unavailable).

Check out the pentax lens roadmap here:
