cbrog,

I can now see why you feel frustrated! How does your k-5 perform with your other lenses?

Bump. There is small hair to the left of the 'ft' marking in the photo below, not a scratch!

So your spirit level and low tungsten light focusing are OK then?
Yes.

Just be aware that the K5 is a relatively new camera and, apart from the unfortunate sensor splodges, does not yet seem to have been fully sorted in the way that perhaps the K20 has. Given Pentax's present situation I wonder if it will ever be.

Hi Roberto. Sorry but I'm unable to ship to Italy.

Bought from Jessops on Saturday. Selling because I think the 35mm 2.4 would suit me better.

Happy to help out with any warranty issues within the next 12 months.

£199 including RMSD

The Pentax version has SMC coatings which, I believe, is the only difference.

The interview tells us nothing. However, Ricoh are certainly not shy about innovating and creating niche products; my GX100 is simply brilliant. I think the k-r replacement may well be 'evil'. Ultimately, I think that is the future,especially for the mainstream consumer market as Sony have already recognised.

Impressive Alan. Had a look in your Flickr gallery. Are all of your bird shots taken with the 150-500? If so, any comments on it as a birding lens would be appreciated.
