I love my new K5 but would like a macro lens for it. I see pentax do a 100mm macro which to me is too long (as I would like this to double as a prtrait lens) does anyone have any recomendations for a macro lens at about 50mm?
thanks
Richard

Yes please Ken!
I never did get the hang of this typing thang

HI there now I have joined the pentax community with my wonderful new K5 I was wondering how pweople set theirs ip. For example do you use the user settings on the mode dial and if so what do you have it set to? Have you re-assigned the raw-fx button to do something else and if so what?

many thanks
Richard

found it in the exif it's 18/01/2011

Sorry but where do I find the date of manufacture?

I have just got a K5 and the serial number is 393xxxx
how can I be sure that it has no stain?
