These days the biggest difference in performance between brands is when you buy the body. The K-x has high ISO performance that exceeds flagship models of just a few years ago. In a few years, iPhones will have performance that exceeds that. > > Jeffery > > > On Sep 24, 2010, at 7:10 PM, drd1...@gmail.com wrote: > >> Oooh! Let's talk about the Super Takumar 135 f2.5. That's always fun. I did a fair amount of shooting last weekend with the k-mount 135/2.5. I don't think that it's quite as sharp as the 135/3.5 but that extra stop really helps. You can pick the Pentax 135s up on fleabay for about $70. >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Jeffery Smith <jsmith...@gmail.com> >> Sender: pdml-boun...@pdml.net >> Date: Fri, 24 Sep 2010 18:45:18 >> To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List<pdml@pdml.net> >> Reply-To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List <pdml@pdml.net> >> Subject: Re: More help for a novice >> >> I paid $35 for a Soligor 135, but that was in 1968. >> >> Jeffery >> >> >> On Sep 24, 2010, at 6:42 PM, drd1...@gmail.com wrote: >> >>>>>> Albinar >> >> >> -- >> PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List >> PDML@pdml.net >> http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net >> to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and >> follow the directions. >> >> >> -- >> PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List >> PDML@pdml.net >> http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net >> to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and >> follow the directions. > > > -- > PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List > PDML@pdml.net > http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow > the directions. -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
