I do have the Tamron 70-150mm adaptall-2 f/3.5 but I like sharpness better on the Vivitar. As long as the serial # starts with 22 and that it is made by Kiron, the Vivitar 70-150mm should be easy to find in ebay. I have tried both the one-touch and two-touch zooms and both have its advantages.Hin Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11542007867767875530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34648316.post-11069702165703764002012-02-19T13:26:02.596-08:002012-02-19T13:26:02.596-08:00Hi,

Have you found a better tele zoom solution? If so, I am interested :-) because I am still on the search for an affordable one.<br />Best regards,<br />ChrisCrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04146362832356252154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34648316.post-25037040279323357452010-10-16T20:19:43.125-07:002010-10-16T20:19:43.125-07:00Im very happy to have found your blog.

I have gotten hooked now and have since bought a couple more lenses (including the 50mm 1.4 prime) and Ive put the K5 on my wishlist, although I might wait for the price to come down a bit.<br /><br />Your articles are very helpful and your blog is one of my favorite bookmarks.<br /><br />Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13349853320998090704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34648316.post-45585769921829806522010-08-12T23:14:12.612-07:002010-08-12T23:14:12.612-07:00@Sally, thank you so much for your comment. Your ...@Sally, thank you so much for your comment. Your feedback make all the hard work of sharing my photo journey all more worthwhile. Kx is a wonderful camera, it is almost the best entry levels that I have seen in recent years from both Pentax and other brands as in Canon and Nikon. In reality, you can pick any of the latest dSLR, you will be rewarded with a wonderful piece of equipment to move up from a point and shoot or a pro-sumer type of camera. Pentax is NOT Canon and Nikon and it is a lesser known brand and there is nothing that can change that. If you like to be the majority brand, pick either Canon & Nikon. If you like to be different and learn photography based on skills instead of 'brand name', you can choose any one and that includes all brands. Of course, I am biased towards Pentax K-x for your first entry level dSLR for the following reasons:<br /><br />- built in SR in the body and all lens will have the stabilization feature, cheaper and cost effective than Canon with IS or Nikon with VR in every single lens with a higher price tag<br />- best in high ISO as in iso 1600, 3200 type of shooting<br />- best in kit's lens quality. The two lens in DA-L 18-55 and DA-L 55-300 will cover most of your needs for the initial investment<br />- color choice other than black, I bought mine with white color which is my best liking<br />- ergonomics and sturdy build, it is not the lightest or the most compact, but its ergonomics especially on the hand-grip is quite good. After Pentax, I will like Nikon over Canon in terms of ergonomics. Canon is too plastic and Nikon seems more solid<br />- outstanding in lens backward compatibility. Check this with either Canon 550 or Nikon D40, they can't have metering with older manual lens and I even don't think the lens mount will fit. Olympus may be better in lens backward compatibility but Pentax is 2nd if not the first in terms of lens mount that can support lens in the last 30+ years, some M42 screw mount lens goes back to the 1960 and even older can still be used with an adapter and metering still work, I call that amazing!Hin Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11542007867767875530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34648316.post-82656622664251616512010-08-12T22:23:59.846-07:002010-08-12T22:23:59.846-07:00Thank you for the great website!

In fact I am seriously considering Pentax K-x and I have been doing some extensive research around the internet, visiting forums, reading lots of reviews and blogs but it occurs to me that few Pentax users seem to share their pictures taken with Pentax cameras online, although they seem to be very happy with their cameras! Everywhere I go it seems to be either Canon or Nikon. This makes me a little uncertain whether I should go ahead with my choice. But I am really glad I stumble across your blog! Now I am very convinced K-x is the one for me. <br /><br />Thank you for creating this blog. Beautiful pictures! :)Sallynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34648316.post-259345300024374722009-12-29T20:54:11.059-08:002009-12-29T20:54:11.059-08:00Great post...
