B&H sigma leses for pentax

vsmouli · 08-03-2012, 07:26 PM

Why B&H does not carry sigma lenses 50-500mm for Pentax. It has been out of stock for so long, where as he carries the lens for other mounts like Nikon, Sony, canon etc. Very disappointing. Same with the new 18-250mm macro version. It is available for every other mount in the world except Pentax....

That's why you place an order with them so they can order it to be in stock for you.

B&H, Adorama and Amazon do not have it in stock - Sigma has for a while limited production on Pentax mount equipment, even though it says it is on backorder if you come across one somewhere you may want to get it while you can; Sigma could very well discontinue it as they have for many other Pentax mount Sigma lenses.

I found one in amazon, but the site does not talk about $150 rebate on the 50-500mm. Is this rebate coming from Sigma or B&H?

I seen one that was used on amazon not new (maybe I overlooked the new one though) - anyways, the instant rebate is from sigma so it applies to any new 50-500...
