I have come across a 18-250mm for around £180 now I would like a general use, are these worth it, in this kind of range I have the 18-55wr and 55-300 I do tend to prefer the 55-300, am I just succumbing to the LBA side of me or is this a real option that would have me leaving the previous mentioned at home?

Because when I decided I was going to go DSLR I researched, researched then done a little research, I narrowed to 3 models all within £xx amount then went and held them in the end pentax filled the bill with some change to boot.

I think this is great news, both new models, I'm still saving the pennies but I am really looking forward to their next incarnation now.

Your forgetting the shop factor though, I was in a shop where the customer was after effectively a point a shoot, but had to be swish looking (DSLR) the shop fella took them to the Nikon, until that changes your on hiding to nothing.

On the the K-50 though, now I've been playing with my K-r for the last year, it is probably enough, but I am still saving towards the K-5II (s?) to be honest if I sold my k-r now could pretty much do it but still in II minds which one (and no the reviews haven't helped :evil

Great shots, every time I look at No4 I imagine a brick-wall just out of shot.

Nice shots, and nice to the forth bridge without any scaffold on.

Now there's a conundrum this or wait for a IIs in a few month!
