I also have both and agree with Pete, get the lens first. I have been using my Sigma 180 quite a bit recently.
I ran a roll of film through my MZ6 recently with the 180mm on. Haven't developed it yet, so not sure how they turned out.
BTW what are these lenses going for at the moment over there, you still don't see too many of them around in the Pentax fit. And you never see them on E-bay.

Nice shot, It looks like one of those nasty Cane toads, we have a problem with down here. Is this one poisonous:
They were introduced into Aust from Sth America to control the sugar cane beetle here. It prooved a disaster as the numb skull govt didn't take into account that the beetle lives high up in the cane and the toad can't climb go figure
The toads are good for practising your golf swing on though

If you have any spare Takumar rear lens caps lying around we could always trade is another option.
PM me with your address, Postage will only be a couple of quid. cheers
I believe you are right, and will watch it out of curiosity, or grab it myself if the price is right.

Excellent shots, the rhino for me, well done.
Why do you suppose it was hunting : Is it a characteristic of the lens you were using : the apertures are relatively large so I would have thought it would snap into focus no problem
