Thanks again,
Firstly, I might be wrong but did they recently release a new 55/300 wr lens to replace the old one?
With this fantastic reach are you always going to need the use of a tripod to obtain a steady shot, looking at some of the pictures of the lens it looks like it extends to the extent of being top heavy, and as I have said I would like a walk about lens to use on the K50.
Mind you I have viewed some of the shots made with this lens and they look great.
Will take you advice and buy new, for the extra £100 it's not really worth taking the chance.
Thanks

The one that you are thinking of as a update is the hd which is basically aimed at the ff camera the one you require is still going strong can't see them stop making it with all the cropped frames that are aboutThanks again,

Thanks once again!
I actually purchased he Dummies book to DSLR and couldn't really associate with it, spent half the book talking equipment and computers
So can anyone recommend a better beginners book please?
And bk to the lens issue. Do you think it would be better to start with the 55-300 or the 18-135 and get rid of the 18-55?
Thanks again everyone!
there is nothing wrong with the 18/55Thanks once again!

Today sunday a beautiful day for walking round some nice place
today was a trip to wadderston manor in buckinghamshire where by chance there was a panasonic stand showing off there cameras but showing them off with a differance
the differance was they was giving them to you ie the camera off your choice and say bugger off round the grounds and use it for a hour see what you think
the thing is do you think pentax would do the same nice if they did
(oh and we was given a 4gig memory card which we was alowed to keep)

To be honest you will always be on a learning curve with any camera
It doesn't mater who you are you will still be learning new things and anybody that says they know it all are talking out there arse
One bit of advice would be to get ether a 70/300 or a 50/300 lens and another is to find some where mixes squirt for the day like a nice garden or park and play with the camera the latter works wonders
