Originally posted by lodi781 for the 60-250. I really need something with reach. can anyone recomend another lens maker that makes a lens that is just as good as the da* lenses?

I'm in the same boat. Pentax has this great big gaping hole in their focal length range, and they don't seem overly interested in filling it.
I looked at the 55-300 last week, and decided to leave it on the shelf after some test shots.
I'll be using my old manual focus/ non A series Tokina 80-200 for a while longer, and cursing that Pentax just doesn't seem to get it sometimes.
