I think the problem with spectacle glasses is that they are curbed to fit the frame when fitted. I could be wrong though...

I have been meaning to ask this for a long time so I just messages cilliaryblue and asked if they could put a prescription lens into my o-me53 magnifier, here is the reply.

Hi Gary
We have done them before but not that one specifically. We should be able to do it, the cost would be £15-20, they come fully coated.
Regards
Chris

So I will be sending mine off once I get my eyes retested....

Shot V Festival over the weekend for a client, as there where lots of girls on shoulders around I decided to make a little album.

All shot from the pit Samsung GX20 Tokina 100-300mm f/4 manual focus.

Having owned the tamron for over 4 years and shot around 50,000 images I would disagree with that.

Sure there have been quality issues but these are easily repaired. As for no westhersealing, I have used it with the k-5 and gx20 in all weathers and never had any issues.

I don't understand no full manual focus? What does that mean, I use this lens for manual focus for my club photography.

I would not hesitate in recommending the Tamron.

Finally got to touch and hold a 5d mk3 over the weekend and as surprised at how light it was, although I didn't like the ergonomics of it the images from it where outstanding.

But then for camera costing over £2k I wouldn't expect anything less.

As for complaining aboute lack of ff in Pentax surely anyone buying into Pentax knows the model lineup, I mean how difficult can a 3 camera body line up be to comprehend???

If you need ff now then you need to jump ship... Myself I can wait a little longer, but for how long I am not sure...
