i have the rs4 and feel the camera attachment is very secure i have a k7, i also bought the strap that goes across the chest and around the back as it stops the main strap from sliding if you need to bend down , which it does with the weight of the camera i found in that situation

Pentax is twice the price of the Tamron is there really twice the difference in real world performance to warrant this as i am contemplating replacing my trusty 16-45 with something faster.
any views on the pros and cons of either
thanks

you could try these . wholesalers can get specialist tubes but there is a delivery charge on top of the lamp cost and no returns as it is classed as special order. i have used wilts and denmans for 1200mm 6500k with cri >90%( colouor render index) probably as important as kelvin temperature. the colour code is 965, this gives a WHITE light, which some "daylight" do not, plus excellent colour rendering.
i tried 840 daylight and they were creamy. searched a lot for light tubes for aquarium as the aquatic kit companies do not manufacture lamps to my knowledge so it has to be ,sylvania/osram, philps, etc and that makes a difference to price without a fancy name on it.

i have cokin and hi tec filters and if you fit more than 2 you get a nice magenta colour cast,if you use the 10 stop hi tec you get a wonderful dark magenta photograph,on a k7. i think if you want 10 stop your better off spending more money and going for Lee or b&w, which i will have to do
