Anyone use the Pentax 200mm 2.8 ?

There isn't a huge amount of lenses available for the Pentax compared to Canon and Nikon, but I've read some reasonably good things about the 200mm 2.8 Pentax lens....except for some purple fringing in high contrast areas. I can't find any astro photos done with this lens. Anyone?

Recently bought the inexpensive Pentax 35mm 2.4 which is a lovely little lens during the day, but a completely different story at night where nearly every star has a nice red circle around it. Wouldn't like to blow a grand on a telephoto lens and have it do the same thing at night.
