Spooky! I lost a pair in the garden last year and come the token autumn clear up I found the lenses sitting in their normal relationship but the frames had totally vanished

Many thanks for the kind comments all.
The one thing I wonder is if the bokeh in the fence post shot would have been nicer if I had a Pentax macro lens rather than the Sigma. I doubt I'll ever know!
Best wishes, Kris.

I ordered the 40 quid lens the other day. Just had an email from Jessops saying they have none in stock but I can have a TAMRON 70-300 F4/5.6 DI PAF F4-5.6 MACRO instead for the same price. I decided to stick with the Pentax despite the wait. Right decision?
Best wishes, Kris.

Did you re-list it? I'm glad you managed to sell it eventually. They both look lovely lenses (yours and the current one) but TBH I use wide-angle much more than telephoto. I have to put a break on my LBA somewhere!
Cheers, Kris.

I saw an exhibition of his pictures in Savannah enlarged to huge sizes, eg 4 by 6.... feet. Stunning quality.

Very good shots those. Just as well the K20 and DA* lenses are waterproof!
Best wishes, Kris.

The M* 300 didn't sell here or on ebay.
Perhaps we are all dreaming of Richard's A*300 f2.8 ED IF? Somewhat more than 300 though, I fear! I'd be interested if I hadn't just bought a DA 12-24mm which has emptied the coffers rather.
Best wishes, Kris.

Welcome to the fora. We all hope you buy a Pentax, you won't regret it
If you were further south I'd suggest visiting SRS in Watford who have all the Pentax stuff in stock and their rivals. Perhaps one of our more northerly members can suggest somewhere more local.
Best wishes and have fun with whatever you choose, Kris.
PS could you add your location to your profile, please? It is only so we can be more helpful with questions like this!
