Thanks for your suggestions. Another idea was maybe looking at Macro close up lenses. They seem cheap and not sure if any good as an option to use with my existing 18-55 lens.

On the macro lens front there seems to be a wide range of pentax fit type lens on eBay from Tamron, Sigma, Tokina, Vivitar etc... ranging 1:2 to 1:5.1. Some huge looking! Difficult, however, to do a search on many of them for reviews and feedback - I guess too old?

Thanks again...

Hi,

I'm new to this and am slowly learning photography. I bought the K-X twin lens kit as a good starting DSLR. I am looking for recommendations on additional bits and bobs to get me started. I am looking for value for money and probably good secondhand stuff compatible to get me started - until I feel comfortable and spend big bucks!

I am looking for a macro lens. I am also looking for a flash gun.

Any suggestions welcome on this subject.

Thanks...

Hi, I'm new to this but I'm thinking of getting a couple of dumb flashes and a trigger for my camera. Flash units manual with adjusstable voltage. Can anybody recommend any of the above to start me off? Which flash units and trigger??? I have a limited budget and a novice. Thanks for advice.

BINGO!!!! Lens Distortion Correction must be OFF! Well done mate for that answer. Huge difference in speed. It may be faster with a Class 10, but happy with speed with Class 6. I also note it is stated on page 137 of the continuous shooting section in manual. I looked in troubleshooting section. Maybe I should have checked that section carefully first? Thanks anyway for all your help and suggestions.
