Thanks John. Pretty much my first thought. Andrew I'm using it for small venue low light gig photography. I currently have f2.8 lenses and more often than not they prove to be not fast enough, without using very high iso numbers. So Im looking for the most detail and trying to cut down the noise levels

I have a little photoshoot next month that involves moving objects in low light situations. So I need a fast lens. Must be auto focus, as I have a 50mm 1.7 manual but find it difficult to keep refocusing on moving subjects. Im on a limited budget of £300 and under. So i'm mainly looking at the DA-50 1.8 or Fa50 1.4. With £100 between the two. Which would you decide on ?

I use a pair of Nikon eagleview, which I find to be very adequate, and not to expensive. But I guess it depends on what purpose to require them for....

Never go out without mine. Its almost impossible for me to hand hold large telephoto lenses. Shouldn't be under estimated

Thanks Brian. I kind of guessed that was the case. We know Pentax are lacking somewhat, in the area of flash control. Not really worth it for one or two shots. I'll have to thinks of other ways to achieve the effect I'm looking for.

I want to use a hi speed sync flash on my K5ii for an outdoor shoot. Reading the instruction book. It appears this can only achieved with a Pentax dedicated flash. Is this correct ? I don't want to spend £400 - £500 on a new flash. As I don't use them that much. I own the Sigma 610 ST PTTL flash unit,

I would also recommend any of the Asus photo monitors.

If its "back to basics" Would you also restrict the use of studio lighting ?
