Re: 60-250
Informations given till now by the guy (which as first seems to be a good source but I suppose that having the lens indeed makes him a good source...). * AF speed seems to be pretty nice * No internal Zoom * Internal Focus * Screwdrive compatible !! * From the pictures posted, seems mighty sharp IMO. -- Thibault Massart aka Thibouille -- Photo: K10D,Z1,SuperA,KX,MX, P30t and KR-10x ;) ...

It is very handy to be able to rotate the tripod mount when you handhold the camera/lens. If not, the tripod mount gets in the way of a good grip. My 70-200 rotates and it also has two tripod mount holes. This helps when mounting a camera like my D2H or i suppose one with a grip, as the mount is pretty tight against the tripod this way. My Sigma 100-500 is a bugger to mount on my old Manfrotto tripod, but better with the Slik 700 Pro. Smaller head i suppose, like the operator.:-) Dave -- MaritimTim -- 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. -- Equine Photography www.caughtinmotion.com http://brooksinthecountry.blogspot.com/ Ontario Canada -- 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.
RE: 60-250 - broken embargo - thread has been pulled
Just a few minutes ago I followed this link to a page that indicated the thread was only for viewing by logged-in members of PentaxForums. When I attempted to find the thread through the index I learned that it and all photographs of and from the lens had been removed at the request of Pentax USA. A more cynical person than myself ;-) might see this as the first action in a campaign of controlled leaks. Look to Ulaan Bator for more news.

I wonder if anyone else has noticed that they put the tripod bush in the wrong place. Don't know for sure, but most likely the tripod mount rotates. My 200mm Macro 600mm do.
