hello,

I think I am going to sell this one, I bought it for filming, because 1.8 and wide angle is simply great, but I actually don't film much but mostly teeth issues mean i need to sell some lenses.
The reviews for this lens are not the best and highlight the fact that's it super soft wide open, so don't expect the best quality for landscape at 1.8... but at f5.6 and above it does great, and you have the option to shoot low light when needed! I think the reviews are poor because the price tag was originally super high -
current price on amazon is £490, SRS doesnt sell it.

Please note this lens is DG which means it will work on the full frame DLSR, that'll be very wide!

Anyway I have no idea the price, so if interested make me an offer!

hello,
i've seen a lot of 17-50mm for sale lately but no 28-75, i haven't tried it but think it would be the perfect wedding portrait lens - anyone selling one?
thanks

hello, you are right i surely dont need a professional camera (whatever this means), I just assumed the more professional the better the outcome will be, but most importantly the more functions there will be, and the more reliable the meter will be - i might be completely wrong, i havent used any pentax SLR pre autofocus cameras (started with a MZ30), all i know is that the Canon A1 shows clearly the exposure which i can adjust, maybe all cameras have that - i am definitely looking at the KX too since it has the best reviews on the other Pentax forum.
thanks for your comments

hello, yes I know, and some are really cheap, but i'm nervous about the condition, most of the time they havent been tested - but i will probably end up buying a ME super there (although on ebay Germany it's not quite as cheap as in the UK!)

great thanks that was very fast to answer my question! the alternative is to buy it from a shop but it will be about 3 times more, although probably more likely to have been tested/repaired if needed.
can i expect some decent results from more recent lenses such as my Sigma DG 20mm?

hello,
i am sure this has been asked MANY times but couldn't find the right answer, been doing some research but it's not that straight forward.
I would like to find a SLR that produces some nice photos (who doesn't!), and looks like the one listed above could be some good alternative.
I know the LX is supposed to be the best but I am not even sure I would be good enough to use it.
I have a Canon A1 and would like something similar in terms of controls.
I also want something fairly small and light (!) to carry in the city.
any tips please let me know, then it will come to finding a good deal on ebay! also if there are things to look out for when buying second hand old camera let me know, my Canon A1 needs to be re-sealed for example..
thanks!
