The bigma certainly needs a lot of care to get the right shot and it's heavy to carry around on field trips
there are not so many choices when it comes to long lens for the pentax fit though.

Getting enough light into the bigma is a problem at times.Hence the often mistaken wide open. live and learn I say.

Thanks for all your comments

Merry Christmas from this side of the world, He he we see santa before you

Thanks Kris, yes the bigma used here, a lens that needs plenty of light.
