Hope I dont get flamed...
As far as I know they are one and the same, there is certainly only a
silver one listed on the Pentax website. This is probably a mistake on
B&Hs part.
However, general consensus is that this lens isnt great, certainly not
par 180mm or so, and that the Sigma 70-300 is a better choice. Plus the
Sigma has a macro facility to boot. It is also cheaper at $169 form
B&H.

Subject: 80-320 lens purchase question
Hi:
I could use some advise. B&H has what seems like 2 very similar Pentax
lenses. The only differences I can tell are price and catalog number
and
one is called "silver".
They list a Zoom Tele 80-320mm f/4.5-5.6 Lens SMCP-FA Auto Focus Lens
with a
catalog number 27607 for $279.95
and a
Zoom Tele 80-320mm f/4.5-5.6 SMCP-FA Auto Focus Lens (Silver) with a
catalog
number 27608 for $189.95
Is there a difference here, and is one better for my zx5n? It's very
tempting just to get the cheaper lens.
Any advice much appreciated.
