Objective?
It might be that the objective lens needs to be one of a series? For eg a magnifying glass on its own, as an individual lens, perhaps wouldn't qualify. That's where I was coming from. I had a rummage round on the internet and couldn't find reference to a subjective lens ( I definitely remember h...

Lens cleaning people
Anyone have a person who can clean fungus from zoom lenses? I'm willing to rip apart primes, but I'm not sure if I want to 'go there' with a zoom. I found a great old lens which I'm quite interested in but it's got some fungi growing in there. Any idea who to go to / what the cost would be (it'...

There's also Asahi Photo - around the same price. Pramath (Asahi) will probably be less, he adjusted and cleaned my FA 50 macro for just under 30 quid including the Vear und Tear, did a beautiful job as well. :D http://www.asahiphoto.co.uk/

Alan serviced 4 lenses for me a while back and did a good job but when I asked about the memory card door on my K10D he said he was very busy atm and would get back to me in a couple of weeks. That was about 2 months ago.

Does Photozone.de hate Pentax lenses?
It also doesn't help that they use an "old" K10 for testing (which can't resolve as well as the larger K20 sensor) whereas the Canon and Nikon bodies they tend to use are "newer" with higher resolution sensors so the Pentax resolution scores will be lower relatively speaking.

Until they test all lenses on the same sensor/"image engine" these comparisons will never be truly testing like with like. G

Does Photozone.de hate Pentax lenses?
Sigma 10-20mm on gets 3/4.5/4.5 stars Sigma 10-20mm on on the other hand gets 3.5/4.5/5 stars Sigma 10-20mm on is the middle with 3/4.5/5 stars That's all the 4/5.6 version rather than the 3.5 model. Don't get me wrong, I love the photozone review process. The thing that annoys me is that ...

Does Photozone.de hate Pentax lenses?
Oh no it just shows that Pentax has the best sensor and the Lens can't keep up :wink: :D I'd go with that :D - except they are saying bang-for-buck as 4.5... the next closest Pentax offering is the 12-24mm, so I'd give this a 6 out of 5 stars for bang for buck!

First shot with Tokina 80-400 ATX II
I agree with your conclusions about the Tokina v. DA 55-300. I think if Pentax could negotiate with Tokina for that design and re-work it into a DA 80-400 WR with some optical tweaks for around £600, it would be a very attractive lens. I think that the best "current" xx-400mm zoom for Pentax is t...

First shot with Tokina 80-400 ATX II
The 4/3 dSLR system seems to have stalled recently, and I think Olympus will need soon to demonstrate some commitment to its future beyond the consumer end of the market. The E30 and (especially) E3 are looking somewhat tired now. I don't get the sense that Sony are doing particularly well in the dS...
