And I attached the DA 18-135, I decided to go with it for November, because it's the most wet/rainy/humid month in Malaysia, and a WR lens will help keeping up and shooting even in rain. I did it before, it really feel good when everyone is running to reach a ceiling but you are alone in the rain and bringing up your camera to shoot!
and my other reason is that I got this lens as a kit with the K30, when I was a newbie and didn't know how to use it, so after a month or so, It totally disappointed me. Now is his chance to stay in my bag.

I'm in for the first time. Going to use the FA 50mm 2.8 macro that is on the way.

I'll probably have to miss Nov. 1 though. Let's hope for early delivery.

Haha that's it alright. I'm having the good grace to wait until my wife's birthday is past, then I lay the Christmas list on her.

Back to prime is a good thing in my book.

After a bit of thinking, I'm going with the following: there's an A 50mm f1.4 somewhere in the mail. If it arrives by no later than tomorrow, I'm going to use that lens.

If it's not here by then, I'm just going to stick with my K-30's kit lens (DA 18-55mm WR) as I don't really use it all that often.

I have to talk to my doctor again but my November In might be November out. They're saying I can't use the camera because my eye would be close to the viewfinder and that is bad for my eye. I will see the doctor again on November 13th, I'll find out then. I can start tomorrow and do up to the 12th, then let you all know if I can continue, or I have to leave the challenge. I think they don't understand photography because the person who told me no about this, said I couldn't put my eye up to the lens........duh.....LOL

Lucky bastard! I expect my silver one will be a couple of weeks at least. I look forward to having a close look at your K-3 output.

I can't use LV, sun is too bright where I shoot. Besides, I never cared for Live View to start with, that's why I love my DSLRs because they have a viewfinder, and not just live view.
