Tamron 28-80mm 1:3-5-5-6 lens
Sigma 100-300mm lens
Thanks

The results are "the same" if the millimeters are the same; you just have to keep in mind that the lenses will seem "longer" on the K100D. A 28mm will seem a lot wider on 35mm than on a K100D. The 18-55mm kit zoom for the K100D will give you approximately the same results as that 28-80mm on your 35mm. So if you want the same coverage, you need a different lens, at least on the wide side.
