via the link below you can get to a site which has a short review of the new SDM lenses with a K100D super and a K10D.
Sadly for most, it is in Dutch but the images look very nice.

Thanks for the links. It certainly doesn't help my LBA one bit

I also found this over the weekend:

And that really didn't help

I find I'm using the 50-90mm range of the 24-90 quite a lot, and the 50-135 would just about be perfect... but I reckon it'll be lonely on its own
So, looks like I'll be having a "lens churn" when I finally go for the two DA*s.

But, I'm still waiting for George's review of the 16-50 in real world use

Thanks for the Golf. Makes me even more annoyed that I didn't get in quick enough for a K10D and 50-135 on Marktplaats on Saturday. I saw the ad when I got back from my course, and by then he'd already had a couple of offers, and sold it. Grrr.

I am still slowly trying to convince the other half that I would like a K10D... But last week we first had to buy a new washing machine so I have to wait somewhat longer....
SDM lenses will be out of reach for me for quite some while, or I have to win the 18,4 million Euro jackpot in the October "staatsloterij"... then I will buy a K10 and the SDM lenses and a couple of limited lenses and.... and... hmm.... keep dreaming....

Sorry Golf, I already have the winning ticket But maybe I'll treat you to a K10D and a couple of SDMs.
