Welcome. Looked at the website you linked to. They only have Samyang lenses for Pentax. I hope you realised that their prices excluded VAT. I personally don't think Consumer websites should post prices without showing the total cost to the Consumer.
Once you stick the VAT on, the prices don't look so cheap. I'd be happier sticking with a reputable dealer like SRS
Hope your purchase goes smoothly

Hi joelineker, welcome. It would be good to know what lens you are interested in ... the site you linked to is clearly aimed at business users of video and film production equipment, and the lenses are mostly very specialised. There is the Samyang 85mm, very good, but it is manual focus and perhaps not the most usual early purchase of a new DSLR user ...
But of course you might well be looking to a specialised use .. so let us know, and we and try to advise or offer other options! OH, and what Pentax model did you get?

Just snapped up a new Pentax at Jessops so I thought I'd join here also. Also I'm getting a new lens from link so hopefully this is the start of a fun experience with Pentax - and if I can learn anything here then that would be fantastic.
Look forward to chatting to you all on here soon!
