Think I will wait till next year and see how the prices are then it also gives time to see if any snags come to light on the camera.

Keep of the GX 20 mine had a hot pixel and Samsung could not repair as for the lack of parts and that was less than 14 month from the purchase date. I ended up getting a voucher for the full price of the purchase and added the extra and bought a HD TV as there was nothing in the store that I wanted regarding photography equipment. Now I need another camera to replace.

Checked the white balance John and it was set at cloudy may be it would have been better set for shade. Here is another out in the feild to be honest the photos look a lot better before uploading to P/Bucket.

Phoned SRS this morning and they kindly price matched Park's listed price. Unfortunatly they are out of stock with the lens so it may be a week or so till it comes.

Taken last night with the Sigma 10/20 on the K100 D.
Regards Ian.

Will this lens work with the K100D and K10D and is it any good there is one for sale in my local camera store and if I can do a trade off with a lens I have for sale I wouldnt mind doing a deal. I have read the Pentax 135/3.5 SMCM has a very good reputation but not sure of the PK smc 135 3.5.

Thanks Stefan very helpful I have been doing a search and found it at Park which looks a great deal. http://www.parkcameras.com/11881/Tamron-AF18-200mm-F3-5-6-3-XR-Di-II-LD-Aspheric...

Hi Stefan thats what I thought as well but the SIGMA 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 NAF DC NON MO, is nearly £50 cheaper than the rest I will have to give them a call and see. The Tamron is £169 on there site.
