. Testing a new (for me) Pentax-F 70-210 f/4-5.6 that I picked up last week. Got it along with an F series 50 f/1.7. So far very happy with the purchase of both these lenses. I think I prefer the Pentax 70-210 to my Sigma 70-300 APO.

Thank you all for your kind comments. . I am finding that the Pentax lens produces warmer colours, and better shadow detail than the Sigma, and it may be a tad sharper. Overall I like it a lot

Excellent timing and focus. This is a great capture. And your lens also worked well.
