Thanks anyway, I have managed to obtain a 150 to 500mm Sigma, however these are hard to come by now. Seems Sigma and Tamron are no longer inetested in supplying the Pentax big zoom lens market.

Can you please tell me the age of the lens ?

Also, would you be prepared to accept 460GBP and can you accept PayPal ?

Regards, David

Can you please tell me if the Sigma 150-500mm is still available ?

David

The colours in the pencils are just too groovy.

Excellent lens.

I think we are missing the point. Price is determined by demand, if everyone on this forum holds off long enough it may drop faster than we think.......not that we want to put RICOH out of business of course.

I am looking to buy a 2 X teleconverter to couple up with my Sigma 150 - 5OOmm lens connected to my K200D. The Sigma 2 X DG for Pentax is close on 300 Euros which is a tad on the expensive side for me.

Given the gear I am thinking of coupling it up to and that I am happy to accept only manual focus would anyone recommend the following teleconverter:

B+W 2x-Telekonverter * Pentax K * MC 7 * Konverter * converter PK

I can pick this up for 69 euros on a German website.

Any advice on the above or alternate suggestions would be very welcome.

Hello Pentaxian2,

I am interested in the macro converter and miranda 2.8, do you have a reversing ring which works with these ?

Dave

Lovely shots, what kit were they taken with ? It would have been interesting with a polarizing filter which may have given a deeper blue to the sky and water.

They may say that size isn't everything.......but this is spectacular.

Hi Brian, The lens arrived with me today in excellent condition and seems to provide excellent results. I say "seems" as at 8:00pm here my landscapes are a little dark.

Thanks for your prompt dispatch. Best Regards, Dave
