I had the Tamron 28-300mm on my K10D (twice) and hated it (twice).
I also have a Tamron 24-135mm SP AF that was my first lens purchase and like it so much as a walk about lens I have just paid £110 to get it repaired after it fell onto a concrete floor and was wrecked.
Hope its as good on my K20D or K-7 (whichever I decide on).

I also thought we were entitled to a 2 year warranty as a matter of right now thanks to the European union.
Hmmm, now Im wondering my my Egg money card is making such a fuss of offering a free extra years warranty on any purchase especially as it says 24 months in total.

Depends where they come from originally I would have thought.
Its a good price but Pentax must know from the serial numbers if a camera is an import and may not honour warranty if it develops a problem.
Saying that, if Pentax have an international warranty (unlike Nikon) then id doesnt really matter where it comes from.

In that case I wouldn't mind one if still available as I scratched mine (and the original) when swapping them over.

Indeed Amin has offered them here for £370 in his long post about the problems he had with the chap concerned. As I see no one here rushing to buy one from him now they are a lot more expensive I think it is up to him what he does with them.
He had to outlay all the cash to start with anyway.

I have actually toyed with the idea of buying an older Canon body just so that I could get the MP-E65 but by the time you add the necessary Canon ringflash you are looking at the best part of a couple of grand (without the body)

The Chinese screens black out after f8 so not much good if you want one for macro work. Should be fine for most other things though.
