The Sigma is HSM only in Nikon mount (as they don't have a screw drive on their entry models) The Pentax version you've ordered will be screw drive.

I had it on the Pentax & it was very capable & versatile, if 28 is wide enough for you though I'd have looked at the Tamron 28-75mm as it is a constant F2.8 & is sharp wide open.

Right click the dodge tool & you will find burn & smudge beneath. Try right clicking the others too if you weren't aware of that feature !

Of course it doesn't mean anything unless the shops carry a decent range of colours. It's crazy that only 4 colours will make it out of Japan.
It's hard enough finding a retailer that carries Pentax bodies, let alone 100 different colour combo's !

Only 4 options are available outside Japan.
That's a relief !

I'd go for the Henry T Ford special edition.

Is this what passes as a continental breakfast these days ?

I must say Pauly, that going by your previous offerings, this does appear soft (image not content of course)

I don't wish to steal your thunder Tim, But I believe I bagged the bargain of the year earlier today.

Found this lot on a local classifieds website.

Pentax ME super, + winder
Pentax K 15mm 3.5
Pentax K 18mm 3.5
Pentax K 30mm 2.8
Pentax M 50mm 1.7
Pentax Extension tubes
Sigma 500mm mirror lens
Vivitar 75-205mm Not sure of the aperture?
Flash and a few accessories
Got the lot for 190quid, I think I can get my money back on the 15mm alone.
I won't have it in my hands until tomorrow and the seller tells me its all in excellent condition. I just hope he is right.

I'd be hoping he's not a member of this website !

Looking at ebay, 2 Pentax fit models have sold within the last month for between £70 & £80. So if advertising here I would ask £65 as you are avoiding fees etc. & you are unlikely to get 2 davex's bidding against each other

Some horrendous colour combinations there. Can we expect a new range of limiteds to match ?

Also it's funny how they advertise 5 grip colours but illustrate at least 9 ?
