Yes, heavenly blues.

So often I hear/read of sunshine not being ideal for photography but for sure it has an uplifting effect and that is certainly reflected in this lovely vibrant, cheerful set of photo's.

Love these Peter, so vibrant.

Yes, I do have the Sigma 1.4 TC and yes I agree with you, for me the 120-400 would be pointless. Also, have neither need nor desire for anything longer or heavier.

Me neither! Maybe we're not nearly-so-wise, or, perhaps our view is just clouded! lol....

For anyone on a budget looking for a little extra reach then this looks like a lot of lens for not an unreasonable amount of money. https://www.ffordes.com/p/SOR-18-031900/sigmapentax-af/120-400mm-f45-56-apo-dg-o...

I'm half tempted myself but then being the proud owner of the Sigma 100-300 f4 I probably and realistically don't need this as well.

Having stated that - What's probably or realistically got to do with anything? Maybe I will change my mind and sell the latter buy the former and be quids in with a longer reach to boot!!!

Corvid 19 has nothing on LBA!!! LOL....

Thank you for that JAK.

Have a good weekend.

Interesting! So if I may enquire please, what's your opinion of it?

Thank you Lenny. I remember well the collaboration between Samsung and Pentax. In fact I owned a GX 10 for quite a while, that being the equivalent of the Pentax K10 D. It came with the standard 18-55mm Samsung kit lens and was possibly my all time favorite digital camera. That claim may have had something to do with CCD sensor.

Back to the 10-17 though, I've not come across the Samsung version before but its sister or brother, the Pentax 10-17 certainly has some interesting reviews, I'm half tempted to buy out of curiosity, but.......I muuust resist

Now here's an interesting lens that doesn't crop up every day, in fact I don't recall seeing one for sale before and the reviews for it appear non existent too.
Not a use everyday lens but might prove of interest to someone and @ £150.00 it's sort of affordable.

A fascinating short video from Sean Tucker on using a Ricoh GR for his street photography.
