Find it a bit hit and miss to be honest, but the old beatles is inspired, as is Harry as Deborah from Dragon's Den! Don't understand the point of Parking Patoweyo.

Well done Andrew!...some very good shots in this collection!....the garden is still an inspiration ..even in the Autumn!...Ken

No - especially in the Autumn! Love those pumpkins. 'Barrows' is a good spot too. Out of this set, only 'Seed Head' and 'Cloches' fall short IMO. The rest offer up a real autumnal treat.

These are to die for Matt. Got to get out there with my 50mm f1.7!

They're all very nice. But I prefer the 2nd and 3rd (which look the same to my eyes!) and prefer the framing of the first few, with only a narrow ribbon of land at the bottom.

There is a Russian lens. The Zenitar 16mm f2.8. $170 new, from Rugift. That's about 100 quid-ish... Don't know what the quality is like, tho'.

The quality is good. The fisheye distortion can be a bit awkward but the lens is sharp all the way across the frame, with minimal CA if stopped down. FULL SIZE IMAGE: link

If you could find an old Tokina 17mm in PK mount (fully manual) then that would be about as cheap as it gets, expect to pay about £200-300 for one of those.

Drat, I sold mine for £120 (BIN). No wonder it sold quickly!

I had a specific query and wasn't thinking about long term membership. Pentaxian was taken and this was unfortunately the first thing that popped into my mind

Sounds an idea, but don't be in any hurry - the K-5 new prices will fall a lot more than used K-7 prices. Meantime, enjoy your kit and decide whether to upgrade now or if the next upgrade might offer even more (there'll probably be a completely new body next time, whereas the K-5 is really a K-7 2.0). And see how the 18-135mm reviews.
