Hi Everyone.

Recent convert after years of Sony/Minolta - decided the Pentax K5 was for me, bit the bullet and here I am!

Currently have the DA18-135WR that I got with the camera, and a Sigma Superwide II 24mm 2.8 manual focus prime I picked up off ebay.

Though I am working on getting my first Pentax prime soon!!!

Welcome aboard, seems LBA is already at work with you. Congrats on the K-5, you'll love it.

And yes LBA has bitten big time

Welcome to the forum.
Nice kit to start with.
Next thing you will want to go wider, then longer........LBA has set in!!!!

Tossing up between wider or faster... DA15 vs FA43.

Then DFA100mm 2.8 macro...

Of course I change my mind with every forum post I read
