Yes for # 3, 4, 6 & 8???
At least those are the 4 that have the greatest appeal to me because they are vibrant or has an element in the photo that tells a story.

edit:
Just looked at your PPG account, and well what can I say. ^^;

btw about the sharpening, I think you're pushing that too far with most of these photos. I've looked them at full size.

It will analyse all of your photos (JPEG format only - if you use raw then ImageReporter [Lightroom only] is what I use) and give you a graph of what focal lengths you used.
Something like that already is in lightroom so no need for a plugin.

Simply go to the Library window and and above the photos you see the line Library filters and if you select Metadata you can select focal length and you can precisely see how many photos of which focal length you have.

No never had that problem with those lenses.

The DFA100 however does sometimes turn very heavy after AF focusing and if the lens didn't lock on. simple doing AF focusing again make it turn smoothly again. I think it has something to do with the gears and the quick-shift of that lens.

KAF2 lenses might work differently or the same... I don't know.

Yes, did you get that little cap with the lens? I only got the screw on one.
I also only got the screw on one, someone was selling his DA40 on the Pentaxforums and he got it from some place else the clip-on lens cap.

which is why so many seem to use 49mm ones without the hood.
Not only for that but the 49mm is the most used filter thread for Pentax, roughly 1/3th of the lenses use it if not more.
Also all the DA limited use 49mm so if you get a the set complete you only need one filter for them all.

Some have been lucky, I mean a DFA100 taken a tumble of the top off the stairs and what other horror stories.
It just need to fall a bit unlucky and it can break the whole lens

Yes the f/2.8 make is a very nice lens to use and that's the reason why I got that one and also the image quality.
The DA18-250 was good from 18 to 150mm but the rest wasn't that great and I hardly used the wide angle of that lens so I hardly used it and I rather used the DFA100 and the DA40 at that time.

The DA18-250 surely is a good lens so don't get me wrong but it has limitation like any other lens and i believe the balance of the 18-55 & 50-200 is a better one.

You could have a look at 17-70 lenses maybe, many find that quite an ideal range for a walk around lens and the image quality would most likely be slightly better then your current zooms.

Yes it is, however I've never used the lens-cap since I always put the lens inside the bag so couldn't be bothered with the cap

Ken,

In that case TT would be better off with a 49 mm filter, wouldn't she?
Yes I actually think so too because quite a lot off pentax lenses use 49mm thread so it's never a waste to have one if you use Pentax.
