I have the Pentax 10 - 17, avoiding the 10mm end and the extreme fish-eye, its a superb lens, want to be creative and get that odd unusual look, use the 10mm setting, its great, but not imo for every shot.
Start from 12mm+ and the fish-eye look starts to disappear, work from F6.7 upwards and its sharp.

Thanks to all who've commented, it is a cracking spot and we were lucky with the mist and overall weather, even the snow storm.

Hi Maltman,
Firstly welcome to the Pentax Forum, you don't mention your budget or what lenses you have acquired, but a K50 or a KS2 available new from SRS for around the £350 mark, bodies only or I'd recommend a used K5iis, available on this forum fairly frequently for similar ££'s
