The term 'fixed aperture' applies to lenses like the various 500mm mirror lenses which have their aperture fixed at f8, or similar, and can only be changed by the addition of ND filters.
Peter I'm having troubles to understand how a ND filter can alter the aperture, could you please enlighten me?The term 'fixed aperture' applies to lenses like the various 500mm mirror lenses which have their aperture fixed at f8, or similar, and can only be changed by the addition of ND filters.

While it may not be the near-perfect tool that the DA* 200mm proved to be, the 300mm variant largely lives up to the hype

Didn't they already have for two years or so now?Pentax Europe are centralising things in France I believe Dave - that is probably what your camera shop man meant.
Came to that conclusion because repairs were outsourced longer or at least I got that feeling

What are the pros and cons of your set up against a dedicated 100mm ? Is the image quality the same ?
Macro lenses are made to have a very flat field of focus with normal lenses this field is mostly curved and when doing macro this field becomes very noticeable.What are the pros and cons of your set up against a dedicated 100mm ? Is the image quality the same ?

Still it shouldn't be hard to customize your own camera.
I don't know if you've those kind of stickers what you get with model-kits with hello kitty and how these would stick to the camera.

Do Tamron do their 17-50 in a Pentax mount?
Sigma also has now a 17-50 f/2.8 EX OS HSM for Pentax link
Here is a review link
Was thinking about getting that one instead of the DA*16-50 but the Sigma wasn't out yet but IQ wise the Sigma has the same weak wide open at wide focal length preformance so not disappointed I didn't wait for it.
