I've noticed one or two have bought the Sigma 150-500 recently including myself.

This is my first 'photo' posting so I hope it works, all taken with K7 handheld with a bit of cropping and adjustment in lightroom.

C&C appreciated.

Chris, they are one and the same.

I've had a K10 and GX20 with no problems swopping batteries between the two.

I had similar problems with my GX20 and put a K20D one on.

Although the viewable areas are the same between the K20 and GX20, the actual shape of the back plastic/screen are slightly different. The GX20 being slightly more curved on the left and right hand edges and possibly taller although I don't have a K20d to compare it to.

The K20D GGS screen protector has straight edges and rounded corners so overhangs very slightly at each corner and has a slightly smaller height (bottom third of the word SAMSUNG sticks out from the bottom)and width.

Although other than when I first put it on, its not really noticable and does a fine job protecting the screen.

As you have a GX10 you will probably need the K10D screen protector as the screens are bigger on the K20D.

Could be interested in the DA* 16-50, how old is it ? Is there any warranty left and finally, what sort of price were you thinking ?

I've had similar problems with my 16-45 and after cleaning the black grime off it fits fine. (It would appear to be very fine worn plastic)

Not really bothered me as it fits fine after cleaning.

The 100-300 F4 has re-appeared on SRS, presumably they've got some more stock in.

Looks like the they've spotted the error.

Having just looked at the website, prices have gone up to £199 and £249 for the 1.4X and 2X repectively as per the other brands.

Hopefully those who ordered got it at the lower price.
