Interesting to note the green rings are back in these images as well as the new 18-55

JinDesu · 02-03-2015, 07:38 PM

Because people complained about the red rings I bet

**sergysergy** · 02-03-2015, 07:47 PM

interesting. I smell $$$

jimr-pdx · 02-03-2015, 07:52 PM

Excellent! Nothing more sad than unnamed camera gear

- except maybe unaffordable camera gear

but I can be patient..

The 150-450 range is an excellent decision.

Imp · 02-03-2015, 07:52 PM

yes, why green rings with HD? I prefer green... hope they stick with it.

Especially considering that both lenses seem to have stabilizers in them.

This 150-450mm F4.5-5.6 ...

Looks like a serious contender for those who have been waiting for a decent "birding" super-zoom !

I smell $$$ (+$) too, as serysergy said earlier.

Daikokuya · 02-03-2015, 08:02 PM

It's due tomorrow. It's Tokyo time, I guess.

**beachgardener** · 02-03-2015, 08:10 PM

all good news, very pleased

Sagitta · 02-03-2015, 08:12 PM

Waaaaait. Two new FA lenses?

I suppose that means what I suspect it means.

JinDesu · 02-03-2015, 08:13 PM

150-450 sure beats the original expectation of 380 on the long end.

K David · 02-03-2015, 08:16 PM

I'm glad I didn't pull the trigger on the Tamrom 70-200 2.8 last week.

OS on them Does this mean what I think it means? Will there be wailing and gnashing of teeth?

afan137 · 02-03-2015, 08:17 PM

I am not very interested with 70-200, but 150-450 is what I need. I hope the price tag is not very expensive. 1500 USD max is what I can see myself buying it this year.
Happy happy time for Pentaxian. CP+ Fun.
