Hello all
I'm new on this forum and I'm very glad I found it (because I'm also a fan of Pentax cameras).
I just bought a K20 camera(only the body) and now I'm in a big dilema. Which lenses should I buy for this 14,6 megapixels camera?
Now please let me explain you what I need this lenses for (probably in this way you will know what to recommend):
I also manage a website and would like to sell some prints from my photos.
1. Usually I'm interested to take closer floral and insects photos then to print them on canvas. But I don't know which lenses to use for this job. I don't want to be forced by the lenses to take photos very..very closely because I would also like to show in my photos some fonts or backgrounds of a flower for example. Is SMC Pentax-DA 70mm F2.4 Limited good for this job?
2. I'm also interested to make some beautiful landscapes. For example I have many fields of sunflowers in my country or beautiful trees.
Should I buy two lenses: one for macro and one for landscapes? Can I find 2 in 1? I only have 700 USD For this investment. I do not need very much zoom. All I want is quality.
Thank you.
