Zewrak, looks like you have a nice lens, you also have a beautiful daughter.
Heather, I had a look at B & H as well and couldnt find it. I am a bit concerned about ordering from o/seas in case there is a problem with the lens. I know that lots of people do it, but it would be just my luck to get a soft copy. The stores around here in Australia dont have it and have no idea when it will be here. Most of them said it doesnt exist because it is not on the Pentax Australia site. (nor is the new 18-55 vsII). If I knew how long it would be untill it arrived here I would be content to sit on my hands and wait. (I think.... maybe.
) depending on the Aussie price.
I do shoot alot of flower macros. I was considering the Tamron 90mm for down the track some time. I think I have to take a look at the shorter lengths and see if they would be more appropriate.
Thanks to everyone for taking the time to respond.
