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.

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

Hello Rich and welcome to the forum. I am interested in seeing results from the mirror lens. Do post lots of photos and join in the discussions.

Cheers,

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

G'day and welcome - good choice of camera. You reap what you sow here, so join in. Lens only has one 'e' by the way

Welcome, K10D is a very nice piece of kit. Quite a few folk use them to great effect. Look forward to seeing some of your pics.
