The 'Aputure Trigmaster II' triggers will work with anything, have a max distance of 120 metres and are well made / reliable. You can buy them on Amazon.

Just be sure to buy the Pentax ones.

David

Ah well...

Great lens for that price
Cheers Alistair, Sam has bought a great piece of glass, I think I must be mad to sell it!

Great shots Alistair, looks like this lens will really suit your style of photography. Thanks for your PM about the lens, I'm looking forward to using the one I've just bought and will post some pics when I've taken some that are worth looking at!

Cheers
David

Welcome to the Forum Ian, you have found a good place for advice, if you have any questions about your K-5 or Pentax in general, don't hesitate to ask!

I am (very reluctantly) offering for sale my superb Sigma 105mm F2.8 DG EX Macro lens. This lens takes beautiful images, not only macro shots, but also portraits at which it excels due to its faithful colour reproduction and creamy bokeh. The only reason I am selling it is that I own another F2.8 macro lens and I no longer need it for portrait work as I have bought a DA*50-135.

The lens is in excellent used condition, only very minor signs of use with clean, clear glass, no fungus and no operational problems of any kind. It comes with the original Sigma soft case, and Sigma front and rear caps. It does not have the Sigma hood, but this is of little or no use anyway as the front element is recessed a long way and does not require a hood.

Asking price is £200 to include RMSD, I do not wish to sell for any less than this as the lens is a fantastic performer and I would rather keep it than see it sold for less. Some images of the lens are shown below, also to give you an idea of what it is capable of, I've included some shots taken with the lens.

I just cannot see how camera manufacturers can justify the price of a battery.
They can justify it as long as people keep paying the prices for the genuine ones

I do like that, the focus is spot-on. In our garden we have a lot of these spiders living on a fence, but they move so quickly I haven't managed to get a decent shot of them yet.
