Hi all, some eye candy for you. FA*250-600mm f5.6 versus A*600mm f5.6.
I took these photos with my W10 to showcase the relative size differences between 2 Pentax telephoto lenses just before I sold the A*600. It's not too often that we Pentax owners are able to put these 2 lenses together at the same time. I was able to buy the FA*250-600 recently (to the seller, thank you!) so the A*600 had to go.
The little black lens sitting either between the 2 telephotos or to one side of the A*600 is a Pentax A50mm/f1.7 lens, which I put there to give you a sense of scale.
Enjoy!
First picture. The hoods of the A*600 & FA*250-600 are retracted. The A50mm/f1.7 looks like a wee speck in between these 2 lenses.

Reason: Correct wording on lens hoods.
