Hi eric i hope you get it sorted i remember i had the same problem with a sigma 18-50mm back focussing.

At the time i only had two options send the lens back to the manufacturer or the place where i bought it from.SRS took it back and i asked for a credit note because i couldn't decide on another lens.With the credit note i used it to purchase my K20.

I would rather send the lens back than mess around with the camera

Congratulations Dan Nice one

That's a quality shot Peter i love the overall colours of the pic and the texture

I've had various lenses that i thought would've performed well in certain situations that havn't.

Certain lenses are better suited to certain situations.For example the sigma 10-20mm is in my opinion poor indoors but put in front of a landscape and i love the perspection it gives.

You will come across a situation where a lens will excell and you will probably use that lens for that situation all the time.

To be blown away by a certain lens you have to know how to use it(Not a dig at you).There are a lot of lenses out there that take a bit of getting used to but to me that is where the fun is at.

My sigma 10-20mm took me a while to learn how to use and i'm not saying i've mastered it yet but am very happy with what it gives.

A quality pic Bob.nice one

Hi all i received my M135mm lens today its in awesome condition but has arrived free of a lens cap.

The auction does state that it doesn't come with one so it's my own fault

Please could anyone tell me what size to order or if anyone has got one for sale

Thanks for any replies

It's quite easy pentaxbabe to geat a bit of movement either on the lens or the flower especially if there's a slight breeze.

The only thing that let's the images down is the composition but as we've said takes a while to master.

Don't be disheartened.Like anything in life the more you do it the easier it becomes

Just caught this thread late in the day so to speak.What a paranoid world we live in when you can't even take a few pics.

If indeed the police were acting on a complaint they were just doing their job' i think the general public get a little paranoid about photography and photographers.

But that's not to say that the police arn't a bit over the top either.Sorry for your hassles with the police amin.

I do hope this won't deter your photography in any way
