I have the FA28-105 IF f/3.2-4.5 which I originally purchased for my MZ6. Has been used on DS2 and now K100D with no problems. This is an excellent lens.

Mac,

My daughter is quite happy (for the moment) snapping away building a colection of family photos with the 18-55, although she did do a one-day "Digital Nature Photography Course" at Guelph University with me last year. She lives 80 miles away and I would never see the lens if I bought the 16-45.

I am dabbling at nature photography with the Sigma 70-300 APO Macro and Sigma 170-500. Unfortunatley I really need to improve my bird photos before I can post anything.

Yes, the weather is improving here.

Mac,

I moved from the DS2 to K100D just for the SR which is superb on Sigma 70-300 APO and Sigma 170-500. Allows me to handhold - also works great on the Pentax 18-55 and 50-200. One of my daughters has a K110D and the quality is the same but no SR which given what she does she doesn't need.

I think the image quality is better overall on the K's than the DS2 which I was always pleased with.

Mongoose,

Nice pictures - you were very lucky to see the Atlas Moth, which is the largest moth in the world. The moth has no mouth and does not eat. It lives just long enough - a few days at most - to mate and lay eggs. It took me many visits to conservatories before I was able to see one.

Viewfinder,

Care to post the Dusty picture - I still have some of her music from that era. My mother always complained about her eye makeup!

The Magic Lantern Guides: Pentax K10D is due to be released on May 1, 2007. Written by Peter K. Burian and published by Lark Books - ISBN: 160059185X.

I have the same book for the K100D and it is very good.

I have the Sigma 105mm EX f/2.8 Macro (non DG model) which I use on MZ6 and K100D. Excellent results and absolutely no problems.
