06 Tele Zoom lens is here :D

My 06 Tele Zoom lens for my Q arrived a few minutes ago and, woooooooo hooooooooo, I likes it ... pics to follow

Cheers,

Jack

first 3 pics are from the 02 Wide Zoom and lens, the last 3 pics are from the 06 Tele Lens

02 Wide at the 15/80 end

All shots, except the last, have been resized to 800 x 533 and nothing else .... the second shot looks a bit 'iffy' because my lens was mucky

Cheers,

Jack

****MY EMAIL ADDRESS IN IS MY 'VIEW PLAN'****

It's amazing what one can do when one doesn't know what one is doing

Congrats! and Happy Shooting!

I am still working on completing my lens collection for my K-5/K100D Super. Debate over the 10-17 or 12-24 or such wide angles.



But is anyone really ever done?

I had the 12-24/4 for a number of years -- great lens and used the 10-17 on a few occasions (Stanley Cup riot .. 2011) and another great lens. Also, used the Tamron 10-24 and, again, a great lens and, probably the one I would go for now simply because, in Canada, the 12-24 has been priced far too high

no problemo Geoff .... just waiting for the deluge to stop .... next days off are Sunday/Monday and, weather willing, I'll try shoot some football (soccer) and see how those turn out and, of course, some cr@p from the streets ........ cr@p = subject matter (wink emoticon)


Cheers,

So tempted, but really want something in the 100mm range for the Q.

I might... although I think I'll grad the fisheye first.

Hi Justin,

Well, the Fisheye is less expensive and lot of fun Although, even though I've only had a 06 Tele lens for 24 hours, I am having fun with it and, if the rain ever stops, I can't imagine what (mental/emotional) state I'll be in ;D

Cheers, have fun and good shooting ....... regardless of which lens you get next

Hi Jack:

Congratulations. Is this from a US supplier as I haven't seen them listed in Canada yet?
