One of my favorite lenses!

Of course the Pentax fanboys write off the OP's experience as "dumb luck". Entirely predictable because if there were any validity to his claims, then we wouldn't all be so smart for having bought...

"How your grandparents and great-grandparents used to see the world"? They told me that color was invented in the 1960's! Now I'm to believe that there was color before color TV and color film? ...

"Snakeman93230", huh? Yeah, I'm definitely going to give you that one and plead a bad memory! Thanks for pointing it out.
Glare was a major problem as was white balance. Shooting RAW solves the WB...

I'm quite impressed that the bird appears to twist it's legs at an awkward angle so that the captured fish isn't left perpendicular to the airstream. Seemingly not content to just carry off the...

I see a fair number of bird photos here so I thought I'd post a few recent images myself.
These were all taken at the Atlanta Zoo last weekend using a DA55-300mm f/4-5.8 (handheld, shot RAW and...

Some consider it bad luck to believe in superstition!

Thank you for the comments. With so much arguing about equipment specifications and features, sometimes it's nice just to talk about photos and how to make them work instead of the hardware.
I tend...

Thanks for the comments. I tend to think that all my photos are crap while it's relatively easy for me to marvel at other people's shots. Technically good shots aren't as difficult to come by as...

Glare was a major problem as was white balance. Shooting RAW solves the WB problem but that left me to tweak the WB settings for each photo individually. Glare is helped by wearing dark clothing...

Though I live very close-by, I hadn't visited the Atlanta Zoo in a while. I took my kids this weekend and grabbed some shots in the reptile house. Instead of a 55-300mm f/4-5.8, I should have...

I own a K-5 and even I'm impressed at the balance of noise vs detail retention in this K-5II shot at ISO6400. Nice color saturation too at that ISO. That seems like a pretty good demonstration...

Perhaps not the best way to impress or make a first impression on consumers but at least it's cheap to buy. Best if everyone pretends that the preceding X90 never happened along with the X70 before...

Okay, you got me on that one, Alex. BUT if one is buying and carrying lenses that are of a size to fit a full-frame camera, it would be nice to have the option to go that route. The low-light...

My reaction to that comment was the same. Let me think for a moment - why would a retailer bad-mouth a camera he doesn't have in stock? A couple of reasons pop to mind and neither involves...

Or just a sign of a manufacturer trying to dump old new stock in a way that doesn't directly undercut their own retail distribution chain and thus anger retailers. Not at all the same as "Factory...

Great place for a UWA shot, say 10mm ?

Clearly? Do you even have kids, James? You really can't imagine a father wanting to use fill-flash with his weather-resistant camera and lens at a water park, or a rented inflatable water slide, or...

I have the DA55-300 and the Tamron 18-250. My experience and opinion matches your's though I'm more inclined to take a UWA lens (Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6) with the super-zoom when traveling in place...
