Size comparison
Hey, I have had a long debate with myself about what to keep and what to sell and size/portability has been a major factor in this. I couldn't find a direct comparison of these lenses online so made one myself. I made a compilation of images of the lenses I have for anyone thinking about the sizes...

Samsung lenses - are they exactly the same as Pentax?
I currently have the Pentax DA 16-45 and previously owned all version of the 18-55, including the Samsung. The WR was definitely the best of the 18-55's but the Samsung was better put together compared to the earlier Pentax 18-55. Feels tighter and looks better. I was very happy with my 18-55WR, fo...

Sure she would not be bothered about manual focus I have tried the Samyang 8mm, and to be honest there is not much focusing required as all most everything is in focus at around f/8.

Primes or zooms
I'd back the recommendation for the DA* 50-135 - an impressive lens. The DA*60-250 also has many fans, but be certain you are comfortable carrying its bulk and weight. The DA* 15-50 has plenty of fans and is a logical accompaniment to the 50-135. Also worth considering is the DA 17-70 (or per...

Primes or zooms
Ive got a 16-50 da and it is an absolute gem. Only downside is that it struggles a bit to focus in dim lit conditions. The fa 35mm is a prime gem too. Then the zoom depends on you. Have you got the cash to spend and what are you photographic needs?

Just snagged a lens bargain!
I've just started doing some studio photography and currently use the 18-55 WR kit lens plus my old SMC 50mm F1.7 manual lens from my ME Super days. I had planned to add a 50-135mm F2.8 and Tamron 17-50mm F2.8 to the kit bag in that order but I opened up camerpricebuster this morning to see that Cu...

Just snagged a lens bargain!
Well guys an update for you and once again thank-you to everyone who replied - especially Cardiff Gareth who raised the issue of the 50-200 being too long for the studio and the 17-70 being ideal. I did my first model shoot earlier this week and found having to occasionally swap lenses between ...

Nice pics:D Now I won't be posting images to back up what I am saying as the portrait shoots I have done have been for the subjects not of them for other use as such, however, My friend also uses a Canon 24 - 105L on his 7d and leaves his 70-200L wotsit at home - I tend to have my K10d with a...
