Why not a used Sigma 150-500 if funds are limited. You didn't seem to struggle getting a nice shot of the willow tit

Asahi Technical/Camera in Brentford (Pramath is the guy) are the people I go to - fixed 2 Z-1s (servicing), the SDM on my 16-50 and the AF on my FA*28-70.

Come recommended.

I bought some gear from them (Wells St off Oxford St) when they were a Pro Dealer, my K10D came from them. Not used them in a while only because I prefer using SRS/Grays/Cambrian.

If it had gone for a price I'd paid, I'll kick myself..

but then I have the issue of having a lens I will probably use once or twice a year..

I bought my FA* for Cuba, then I thought Cor blimey it's heavy, much heaver than the 60-250. So, apart from the days I was using the FA primes the DA* was permanently attached to the K-3.

Optically the FA* is brilliant, but given my medical condition prior to Cuba, weight was a concern (didn't stop me taking the 15-30).

I'd love to have it
I fancy the idea of the F4 version coming out next year
I bought the FA*80-200 recently and love that
I can't bear to part with the DA*60-250 (much lighter)

So next SRS deals will be when I go for one of the new lenses for sure.

What's the current trade in price for a K-1?
It is £699 at SRS
that's the price to change... making the value of a excellent K-1 with less than 10k clicks £1100...

what SRS or other retailers will offer in p/ex for other gear is something we can't guess.
