Hi Michal,
You must have got the information about the focal length of the lens and the aperture from the EXIF data?
If so, how do you read the EXIF from a posted photo? When I read the properties, all I get is the size of the photo and file type.
Regards

I have had the Pentax DA 17-70 f/4 SDM for a few weeks now and think it is excellent. You might consider it also.

If Pentax would disappear (but they won't),I would buy all the Pentax Limited's I could lay my hands on
That would go nicely with a then discounted K7
But Pentax will not disappear
Change is inevitable, but disappearance not...

I think it is a great lens. Very sharp.

Oops, sorry.
I did not pay attention
It is obviously not the same lens if it is at least 18years old.
But you will probably find it on his website, anyway.

Are you referring to the 24-90mm/3.5-4.5 AL(IF)? If it is, it was made 2001-2004. I found the info on Bojidar Dimitrov's website.
Have a look:

I have the Sigma 50-500 and am happy with it. Can be handheld but is fairly heavy, so I would recommend a tripod for shots at a distance.
I bought it in SA a year ago at about 850 GBP at today's exchange rate.

The only time I ever use AF auto point selection is on moving targets and I use this in conjunction with the continious AF option. It is not ideal but it has allowed me to get shots at bird of pray flying sessions.

Most of the time I use the centre point and just recompose on AF lock.
Birds of pray...
Hmmm.. are they like a sacred ibis or just the common or church roof variety pigeon?
