Thumbs up for PENTAX! :D

As long as lens tells the camera correct focal lenght the SR works fine. I have four Sigma lenses and they all communicate with camera correctly.

Can't agree with Coldrain. Pentax kit combo is very well thought of. An older post about 50-200 lens: http://www.dcresource.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9605

This review of K100D also commends...

I'd go with the double kit. These ultra zoom lensens tend o get soft at tele or wide end plus Pentax 50-200 is brighter at tele end than Tamron is.

Sigma 105/2.8 macro. Av11 Tv13sec.

I'm a preetty fast runner and I used a sturdy tripod as well ;)

but seriously, the fly was floating still now and then so I was able to take a picture of it.

Nice to see some update. Here's mine. Took it with Sigma 70-300/4-5.6 APO macro Super II

I believe it wil satrt in less than a month.

Of course. M42 means a screw mount lens.

I was waiting for their mother for five hours with no luck, but then I got lucky and took only one shoot of it.

In the early spring (before the leaves grew) I've been lucky enought to find a nest of an eagle. Came back a couple of times to make sure the nest isn't abandoned and it wasn't. Next time I took my...
