It depends how bright the moon's going to be in the sky and how much light is about, sunset in the UK isn't until around 21:20 ish depending on where you are.

I shot this at the end of May this year, K1 with a Pentax 150 - 450 @ 450mm - 1/200th second F5.6 and 100 ISO - Handheld.

I recall the auto settings gave an over-exposed image so went manual.

I can confirm the Z is a stunning piece of kit for both portraits and landscapes.

The Sigma used to come as a kit paired with a 1.4x teleconverter in some mounts. Did the Pentax one ever come as that set ?

As far as I know, never as a kit, there was a matched 1.4TC and a 2x TC which worked with a few other Sigma lenses of the time, I've seen one for sale either on here quite recently or poss on another forum, cant recall which.

Another lens I've been talking myself out of for several months - you're not helping me much at the moment
Thanks John, really appreciated, If it would help to take your mind off acquiring either the Sigi 100 -300 and or the Pentax 150 - 450 we're not that far apart and I'd be happy for you to try them so you could decide their not for you
