My Wife and I have been using this site for years. Very comprehensive lists, simple to use and Worldwide coverage. Have a great time, Ray

This other Pentax site has reviews for Pentax and a few other brands of lenses. Unfortunately although it lists your lens, there are no reviews. The Tokina page is here: http://www.pentaxforums.com/userreviews/showcat.php?cat=78
Sorry I couldn't have been of more help, Ray

Here's a link to a very comprehensive list of Flash units and their voltages.

The 'Yes' means they are suitable for the Canon Eos models (very low voltage acceptance). I've read various figures given for the Pentax DSLR as safe voltages but personally I'm keeping below 10 volts to be safe with my K100d super. Rather be wary than scary. Hope it helps.

Hello all, this is my first posting here since finding the excellent forum and I hope it can be of help. I've only just become a Pentax user (K100D super) and also via the recommendations on here, a Tamron 70-300mm lens owner. This lens suffers the same PF problem at the long end. I recently found a link to an article on how to repair the dreaded PF (a regular occurence on my Fuji). The article revolves around altering the hue/saturation and light levels using Photoshop, PS Elements and Paint Shop Pro but the same outcome can be got with many other editing programmes.
