The tamron and the pentax are basicly the same in construction but the pentax has some better coatings I've been told, they are pretty good lenses for there range but don't expect amazing things from them they are only good nothing special.
You also said the sigma 55-200, there is an Pentax 55-300 also on the market and that one will preform better then the 18-250 or 18-200 and it has quick-shift which I'm also really missing.
but in the end it really depends on what you need since 50mm isn't really wide so what do you want to do with the lens?

No it really looks sharp but still. I already have the 18-250 the 55-300 would be an upgrade but not so much, better save some money for the DA* 300
okay the second image didn't work at first with me either but now it does

Full frame sensors are alot more expensive then APS-C sensors for various reasons and some pro's and ametuers would want it but only some pro's need it.
Sure it would be nice to see some but how many would they sell?
We already did a poll on this I believe, many would wanted to see full-frame but almost no one thought they needed one, if it's only to say against the canikon fan "look pentax has fullframe too" then what value would it be?
Here is an article not the one i've readed, it was much older.

ps. I've said that Samsung would be going out of the DSLR section but that isn't true, they are trying to get more away from the pentax cameras and thats all. Sorry to worry some off you

Lowe Alpine has some very nice backpacks with 2 compartments with a devider like this one for example link I believe you can access the lower part trough the zipper in front if so do you think you can make something like the inside of the camerabag so that it fits snuggly and wont damage the gear, any thoughts about that?

The crop is a lot better, next time use a pol or a GND filter to get the fore ground a bit lighter but in the crop it already looks a bit lighter, well done.

Here is an article about the dust removal system and it doesn't seem to work link
I know it's from the K10D but I believe that they haven't change the system or have they?
The verdict quoted from it.

Pentax K10D
Part of the reason we started to organize this test was that we had a bad experience with the dust removal system of Pentax K10D that we had for our review.?Although the amplitude of the CCD movement is quite high (one can feel the shake on his hand), the frequency is rather low.
After the second cleaning cycle surprisingly we have found more spots on the image than we had before it. This could be caused by the dust stuck in the mirror area. One thing is sure though: this system is not working as promised. Even after the 25th cleaning cycle we had all the spots on place. I tried really hard to find one disappearing spot, but I failed. So did the Pentax dust removal system. Effectiveness: 0%.
After using the air blower the remaining spots decreased to a dozen. This shows, that the sensor's surface is not statically charged. Knowing this increases our disappointment even more.

Yeah, I hear it has heating, electricity, internet and it seems it has been cleaned recently. Might be tempted to do that or are there any Ladies here in the range of lets say 18 to 24 where I can stay?Anvh wrote:

I don't know what you mean with shooting it RAW, of course you can change your white balance without any lost in quality afterwards and there are many more reasons but I don't know what the LCD screen has to do with that?
