Hello everyone, I have recently joined the DSLR world by buying a friends immaculate K10D with a kit lense and Tamron 18-250mm. I got excited and purchased an immaculate Sigma 600mm mirror lense. I'm hoping to get some nice nature shots with this lense. I have just returned fro a two week holiday in the New Forest and got some excellent shots. I'm a Pentax fan, I am surprised about the Nikon / Canon snobbery, why is this? Speak soon Rich.

Welcome.
Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

I gladly welcome C & C's. Being foggy minded they really help me learn.
