Thanks Doug. I do think it's the best choice for ultra-wide on a Pentax DSLR. Paul On Dec 3, 2008, at 8:27 AM, Doug Brewer wrote: PN Stenquist wrote: Here's a shot of a drag car passenger cabin.

Nice work, Tim. I love your unusual perspective on portraits. Well done. Paul On Dec 3, 2008, at 3:54 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Nice shot Paul. The DA 12-24 is one of my favourite lens.
