No need to post in code, if you want people to understand it that is. What on earth is [WTB] supposed to mean to the rest of us on this planet?

I agree i should have cropped the grass out but i lost focus on the grass (foreground) and was more pre-occupied with what to do with the sky so it was over looked.

I was quite happy with it other than the size and the fact that like most independant lenses, it focuses the "wrong" way for Pentax. The only reason I sold it was that I wasn't using it that much and the 200/2.5 or the 200/2.8 A* on the A 2X-S covertor did the same job. I certainly preferred it to the lighter weight offerings that came after. Check my post above. The link there will take you to some of the wildlife shots I used it for in the Falklands.

So what did you think of the vivitar lens do you recommend it.
I want a long prime but i don't want to pay a lot of money for it as i won't get that much use out of it. But i don't want a dog either (gee i am easy to please )

I used to have the Vivitar 400/5.6 which was a similar size and it was a monster. It came out shortly before the more compact 72mm filter versions from Tokina, Sigma and Tamron. Whilst it gave impressive results, it just never got used that much because of it's bulk.
