Hello from Malaysia

I just joined to learn more about Pentax cameras and lenses, especially the older models. My first Pentax camera is the K10D, still using it.
I use 2 systems, both Nikon and Pentax cameras. For Sport Optics, mainly Pentax binoculars & spotting scopes.
Hope to post some pictures taken with the new 560/5.6 soon, as soon as I figure out how to do so. May take some time

Hello there,

Not sure how to address you

See following link to Pentax Malaysia Facebook page -
Pentax 560mm | Facebook

Test Photo For Pentax 560mm | Facebook

Still trying / learning how to post here. Something about 1024 pixels and 2MB file sizes. Until I know to post here, I can only point to location where some pictures have been posted.

The lens is on loan from Pentax Malaysia. I tried it out for a very short time only. I am sure others are waiting to try.

Aye, thanks for that I had seen them, are you going to pull the trigger then on one for yourself, or you've already done that.
