I got the Tamron 70-300 at the same time as the K10D, from Jessops, for £99. Haven't really used it much yet, although I have tried a few macro shots in the garden which looked absolutely fine. Also printed off an A4 taken at 70mm which was fantastic. (Upped the sharpness +2 and the contrast +1). It's a bit noisier than the 18-55 kit lens when focussing, but I expect that's to do with the design/size of the lens rather than the manufacturer.
Right. That's just the deal I've been presented with - along with the grip for an additional £99, bringing the total to £700 forI got the Tamron 70-300 at the same time as the K10D, from Jessops, for £99.

The cosmetics of the Samsung GX10 and the Pentax K10D cameras are slightly different, but the body internals are designed and made by Pentax, the Samsung variant has its own firmware too. I think the same is true of the Schneider lenses in that the glass and internal mechanics are one and the same, only the external casing/livery is different.

The point is that they aren't different manufactrers - the Schneider lenses are made by Pentax in the Pentax factory. The different cosmetic arrangement is purely that.
understood now i think thanks!
