I had one from ebay, it only cost a few quid and worked perfectly fine.

Hi Stuart and welcome.

I have only taken it up recently after a twenty year break. I bought a K-r last year and upgraded to a K5 only a month ago.

Looking forward to see some pics.

I am surprised no one has snapped it up. I have one and its really sharp. being a manual lens you have to set the required aperature on the lens and manually focus, press the green button to set the exposure correctly and bobs your uncle.

You might also try depth of field preview to see if the camera will stop the lens down to the selected f stop, I would use a high f stop number say f22 to make telling the difference as easy as possible.

Tamron 28-75 f2.8.

I have just got one to supplement my DA 18-55 & DA 55-300. The idea being to keep it on most of the time as a walkabout general lens.

They are about £330 new, but I got mine second hand for £165. Checkout the reviews.

Get it. I have had absolutely no problems with mine. It's a fantastic camera and this is the time to get one, doubt if it will get much cheaper.

They all are nice shots , but the ones that really stand out for me are 2, 14 and 15. I think they are stunning.

Wish I had been there.
