It's weatherproof so enjoy it whatever the weather...

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

I would have been better off keeping the 55-300 and getting a DA300mm. I think the DA300 would see more use.

I've already got the DA* 300mm if the 60-250mm is any where near as good I'll be happy.
Hopefully the 60-250 will arrive today I'll try and test it out this weekend and post a few shots

Lens arrived today A1 service from SRS as usual.
Sadly no sunshine in Cumbria to test it properly.

That's strange.... It's been sunny all day in Lancashire
One of the best days we've had all year

Still 20degC outside 8:30pm
Half Man... Half Pentax ... Half Cucumber

Pentax K-1 + K-5 and some other stuff

It was sunny in Cumbria until about 5 minutes after I finished work, thunderstorms at the moments
