I couldn't stand it any longer. I purchased the Tamron AF70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di LD Macro Lens.... I've been having so much fun with the Pentax K200 and the 18-250 lens, but it was driving me nuts... I wanted to reach a little longer so I shelled out the "big bucks".

Hardly that considering what I paid for the camera and 18-250 lens. Thanks so much for your help! I'll let you know how it goes once I get the new lens. Until then I'll be like a kid waiting for Christmas morning.
