Very nice, especially number 2.

Now how about a little movie showing it fluttering about ... oh sorry, forgot you had to give the K-7 back

Had the DG APO version, fine for largish subjects such as cars, boats, people but not so good for fine detail such as birds.

Mine sold 2 weeks ago on Ebay for £350 but I think I got very lucky there as have since seen the same model go for £260.

When I started with my K10D just over a year ago (it seems so long ago now)I made the mistake of buying cheap zooms .. I was lucky that I actually made a profit on most of them (more down to luck than judgement) but I still have 3 or 4 upstairs in the cupboard that I just cant be bothered to put on Ebay as I know they will fetch peanuts. I would now rather wait until I can afford something decent than have to keep chopping and changing every 5 mins (although I still do that to a certain degree).

The only one I still have and use is my first purchase, a Tamron 24-135mm SP AF lens which recently got damaged and I have just paid £103 to have it repaired which is what I paid for it originally .. purely because finding another is next to impossible and its a good lens.

If you are happy with manual then start looking at the Tamron Adaptall 2 SP range such as the 70-210mm f3.5 and 35-80mm f2.8-3.8.

See it works, you are still living in the house are you not?

In that case you are doing it all wrong, buy her something at the same time .. like a new Hoover, an ironing board or really splash out on a new hostess trolly and all will be fine. Go on, try it

LINK ... Don't see those very often I imagine

I wonder about your 60-250mm as you have said a few times that you think both the 50-135mm and 300mm prime are a lot better.

I think its a cracking shot, I love to see pictures like this.

Just proves the Pentax/Samsung cameras AF is not as slow as people like to say. As for having hundreds of oof shots I think most fast moving shooters get the same thing no matter what brand they use.

That's why I highlighted the comment "much more obvious" before saying about the running Amin ... I think it would have been fine for you to say it but not so sure from us "Whiteys"

Not much of an unboxing is it.
Actually, who's to say its a K-7 .. all I see is a Pentax logo :
