It depends how much you value portability and compactness of your outfit. If you are not too worried about this I would go the zoom route, the DA* lenses are superb, I have recently acquired a 50-135 and it is beautiful, the equal of any of my primes and better than most.

Some of these shots I love and some I'm not so keen on! The one of the three people walking away is a corker! Wedding photography is not easy and I take my hat off to you.

Hi all

If anyone has a DA*300 in excellent condition that they are willing to sell, please let me know. It must be free of anything other than cosmetic damage, a few hood scratches are always acceptable but anything more is probably not, it must have working SDM with no history of SDM issues.

Price obviously depends on the age and condition of the lens.

Regards
David

A bump for my superb DA 17-70 lens. Price is now reduced to £250 plus postage, alternatively I will swap for a K-30 in excellent condition and a low shutter count.

If there's no interest at this price I will probably take my chances on ebay where I think the lens will make its money.

Cheers
David

First one looks like a Chiff-Chaff, second one looks like a Reed Bunting, both are pretty common birds, prominent in Springtime. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong!

The second and fourth are really nice shots, these are my favourites. The third is a bit too 'busy' and the first one doesn't catch my eye, but it is a nicely taken and processed image.

All of them look natural and are all the better for it!

Great shots Drew, the second one is my favourite, because of the dramatic cloud formation. I got some good ones on this same day out too!

I think we may have accidentally hijacked this thread, apologies for this

To get back on topic, the question was 'what upgrade' from K-5? Hope you get some decent feedback.

David
