Not done any macro for a while but saw this little chap over in the forest today and thought he deserved a picture or two.

Im still hunting for a reasonable priced 1.7X converter.
Of my 3 PK/A mounts, one came from this forum for £30, another came with a 80-250mm Tamron for £18 and the other came with my 72B Tamron 90mm macro which cost me £75.

Strange, I can see it.

Anyway .. here it is again, along with a Robin taken with the SIgma 135-400mm DG APO.

Oh, I presumed THIS was it (already tried a bid).
Well it should give you a pointer of what it will go for.

Very nice shots, the flamingos seem a little bright .. not sure if you could alter the exposure slightly?

Where did you take them, the Flamingos here (Santa Pola) have all but gone now. Here is one I got the other day but he was all on his own and far away.

A J Purdey were doing 25% off anything in stock 2 days before they closed.
Nothing there in the way of Pentax gear but a friend of mine ordered a Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 for his new Nikon D90 and it arrived the day they shut shop.
He got it for £385 delivered .. luckily it all works fine.

It seems they have had a change of heart and taken the K200D off the discontinued list.

I prefer the Tamron on the basis of these shots, but I'd probably want to use the Sigma a bit longer under varied conditions to be sure...
Got a bit more light this morning so got the Sigma out for another test.
Taken at 200m f3.5 on the K10D.
Quite pleased with that one.
