I have a Zen vision M (30GB) don't know if that would work for you?

Thanks for the input Doug, I wasn't sure if the review on PF was for this lens as it was listed as UF not HF. Think I will keep an eye on the web for a bargain or see what Xmas and my birthday bring.

I have been trying to resist the LBA but feel it's getting control

Looking at this Sigma lens and also the PENTAX-F SMC AF 35-70mm F3.5/4.5.

I haven't been able to find much in the way of reviews for the Sigma any pointers or views on this lens welcome.

Great set of images, Paul.
Are you as close as it looks to the tiger in No4, if so, I dare not show the wife, as its her big ambition, to get up close and personal with big cats.

Take care.
Yes Chris we are that close, these tigers are only 10 months old and the stick you are given seems like it's not enough to protect you but the Tigers are more interested in the stick than you. The guides make sure that you only approach from the rear of the cat.

I must admit to feeling very uncomfortable about #4. I'm not saying it happens where you went Paul, but certainly in South Africa (and other countries) big cats used like this usually end up being used for "canned" hunting, or put down once they get fully adult, since they become too dangerous. They can't be released as they are humanised, and the wildlife park can't keep all the young animals they produce for such photo ops.
The only thing I can say is they did have larger pens with adult cats in them so hopefully they are not put down as they get older.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Pity I can't claim to have taken number 4 our guide took my camera and having said to us never to crouch down on the floor in front of the tigers he did to take the photo.

Hi Paul...
#2 is funny!

#3 I would have cropped out the dark side at the left side...

Cheers,
I posted it just because I thought it was funny the bird was sat on a tree branch close to tour balcony in the hotel but no matter what it always faced away from me I think he knew I wanted his photo.
