K200D SDM wow...

2008-06-20 Thread gldnbearz
Let me preface this by saying that I started out with the ZX-5N and moved to the istDS. I became quite familiar with the whirl of the Pentax AF motor. Of course, I could always focus manually to avoid that issue. However, this week I received the K200D paired with the DA* 50-135. I was

Sure I will. The 50-135 is not exactly an inconspicuous (?sp) lens, lengthwise. ;) To be inconspicuous, gimme the istDS + FA28. On Fri, Jun 20, 2008 at 10:32 AM, David J Brooks [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ya, but you won't get those nasty stares in subways, like Frank gets. -- PDML

I wouldn't call the K200D/50-135 exactly conspicuous. At least not compared to a 645 with a 150 prime (Holy Mirror Slap, Batman) or even my D300 with f2.8 glass mounted. But it's definitely more conspicuous than a DS with a 28/2.8 -Adam On Fri, Jun 20, 2008 at 1:38 PM, gldnbearz [EMAIL

Well, I *might* take the 50-135 on the subway (as Dave wrote that Frank does). I don't have a 645, but I would not carry a D300 w/ 2.8 glass mounted. SO has that set-up and I walk tipsy after carrying it. =) Love my DS + 28. On Fri, Jun 20, 2008 at 10:55 AM, Adam Maas [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
