There is also the new DA15mm if you want the lightweight option, I have just purchased one, but yet to really put it to use, a much smaller and lighter option than the 14mm.

You could also consider "stacking" a 50mm or 28mm onto the front of your 35-70mm, if you want to get in very close. See this thread cheers

I am selling mine as I am getting my K7 delivered tomorrow.

It was bought from SRS last November so has 13 months warranty on it. It has had around 2500 photos taken on it, and never been abused! I would say it is in mint condition and comes with the original box and all accessories. The shoulder strap has never even been used.

It also comes with 2 extra batteries. Although these are not Pentax branded, I have never seen any difference in battery life between the the non-branded and branded batteries.

I would be looking for £425 inc delivery to UK address.

Thanks, James
Don't be too quick in off loading your K20, incase you have problems with the K7.

Good luck with it.

This should be in the classifieds section also.

Thanks guys, I think I will keep this lens, the colours are fantastic, and if I have to compare it with the DA 35mm macro I would say sharpness is better on the DA and contrast on the 30mm is a tad better.

Your right Kris, it was basically free, sometimes you can be lucky I suppose
If I ever decide to sell it, you can have first refusal.

BTW, My DA 15mm f4 finally arrived today after 4 weeks of waiting. Its a long weekend here and i'm off down the coast for some trail riding and I hope to get some good shots with it, taking the 30mm K, as well as all my ltds (no zooms) Should be a lot of fun and drinking

My only complaint about the design of the ringflash is that the cable does not detach from either of the components
Until yesterday, that's what I thought about the cable on the AF-080C (which I have owned for years).

But I came across a manual on the Web, and it told me that there is a little button on the control unit under the cable, which will release it.

It's just possible that your flash has the same.

Unfortunately George this is not the case. It doesn't detach, its quite a big cable on the AF160FC and not all that flexible either, My only gripe with it.

I can't believe you didn't realise the cable on the AF080C didn't unplug
