A few quick shots with my new DA*50-135, thanks MikeP. Nothing that good here but it's not going to be off the camera very much so I'll be getting plenty of practice:

Impressive, the 4th shot really shows the potential of the lens, and it`s not a bad photo either . Can feel the bank card starting to twitch

You would not regret that acquisition Dave - it lives on my K10...

It does look like a very loverly lens with a lot of portraiture potential, and clearly in good hands! The white balance looks a bit pink on the lake shot btw.

Pitty about SDM issues though, its the only reason I haven't bent my bank card for one.

Still shooting in the dark (literally and metaphorically)...
