You can now get an adapter for Pentax 110 lenses, now I'm really tempted!

I have shot airshows and the 300 end is great, 200 is a little short.

What an amazing camera! Handled just like a bigger K7! Just stunned by it. Performance and handling reminded me of my K10D, but with 40MP output!
Now where did I stash that £8999

Thank you for a great transaction.

You can also get adapters for standard flash units, more expensive than the LED lights but cheaper than a dedicated ring flash. May be worth looking at.
So far, much of the macro work I have done did not really need much extra light and I also found that the built in flash on my K7 can work with the 100mm lens as the working distance is a little more.

I went for Crumpler CUPCAKE 5500. I know it is a different type of bag but has room for K7 and two lens.
I would advise measuring your camera with lens and compare this with the internal dimentions noted here. As when I ordered my Crumpler I though the smaller size would be ok - I returned it the next day and ordered the next size up!

All using three layers principle. If it was so good why aren't all cameras this way then I wonder?

OK, so who's volunteering to get a Q and stick a Bigma with a 2x converter on it?
Surely we could see if there's life on Mars with that combo!
Might need a very bright day though, perhaps Venus might be bright enough.
