Nice shots, Lance, I can feel the LBA creeping up in me...
The bokeh seems nice enough and I bet the AF is sweet as well.

Only question: Is it good for bird shots only?

Thanks for posting,
Prieni
Thank you, Prienni.

I have it under good authority that it can take photos of other types of bird life, too.

Thank you for taking the time to comment.

Number 2 of the gulls does it for me - gorgeous Sonnar-like bokeh and great detail in the whites of the central bird's plumage. I'm starting to really like what I see from this lens.
Thanks for the nice comment, Hefti. The DA*60-250 *can* exhibit some good bokeh at times and as you say, the lens can do great things. A real winner from Pentax.

Hi lance, welcome to Pentax User.
You aren't by any chance the originator of the term LBA ?
If so, you certainly have the equipment to back it up.

Martin.
Thank you for the welcome, Martin.

Yes, I am the person who put the name to the affliction, LBA.

Thanks Lance, Im always up for gasbag and a photoshoot.

BTW thats an impressive list of Kit you have there. Where did you get the DA*60-250, was it locally : I have seen a couple advertised around Sydney but at exorbitant prices.
No, it was from a forum member here and we can chat about that over a gasbag and coffee.

Hello Lance and welcome to the forum!

It's certainly much more laid back around here than the other two fora you mention but there is a small entry fee; if you send me your FA31, A50/1.2 and DA*60-250 I'll square it with the management...
LOL. I thought it was too goog to be true!
