closest focus distance is really pretty far. Can't remember exactly what it
is... By the way, both I and Mick have one of these lenses for sale. Let us
know if you're interested.

I have owned one of those lenses for 4 or 5 years now and I can't say any
thing bad about it. I think it is as good as any thing Pentax makes, and at
one forth the price. Build quality is the best. It is one of the sharpest
shooting lens made.

I'm not criticizing anyone, but why is it taking three days to post

It's Saturday,
i have a tokina 28-70 f2.8 . build quality is top notch. the has since
been replaced with the 28-70 f2.6-2.8 and that has been replaced with
the 28-80 f2.8. but tokina has always had some of the best "off brand"
lenses made.
Hello!
I am looking for a decently priced alternative to FA
check with your insurance co. to see if you can insure it for what it

no deductable
i have the 19-35 3.5-4.5 , 28-70 2.8, 28-105 3.5-4.5 and an old
75-300 4.5 - 5.6 tokina , all auto focus, and use them on two differant
pzip bodies and every thing works as it is suppose to.
I've found the FA 28 - 70 to be acceptable at 28mm.
The two complaints I have are distortion and
and besides there are some features on a pentax that are not on a nikon
unless you spend another few hundred dollers.

the only filter that has to be for auto focus or manual focus is the
polerizer. circular polerizer for auto focus and regular polerizer for
manual focus cameras. it has to do with the auto focus system or the
metering system. i'm not sure.
I just got home from going out and pricing polarized

Hi all,
Well, I'm getting another body through auction. (Woo hoo!!)
It'll be my first AF body, and come with F35-80/4-5.6.
we can settel what is a professional. go to a dictionary. it says (1) of
or engaged in a profession. (2) engaging in a given activity as a source
of livelihood.
So I guess all that commercial work that Michelangelo did pretty much
disqualifies him as an artist? It's a pretty sweeping statemen
the photographers that shoot for national geographics are what i
consider pros. there was a program on tv some ago about the photos they
use in the magazine. you were right about the quanity of photos shot.
but sometimes after shooting all those pictures the magazine may only
use one.
