Hello my Name is Max. I have been an amateur Pentax user for about 6 years now. My father introduced my to Pentax and even though most of my friends have different brands and equipment seems to be hard to find, I really love my K3. I am hoping to get more insights here and probably some good advice which lenses to buy next. I am especially looking for some good tele lens options, anything around up to 300/400 mm. I like shooting animals and landscapes. Still need to warm up to portraits...

welcome aboard......usually see folks talk about the da300 with a 1.4 teleconverter but they all seem to have the disposable income of George Clooney

Willkommen Max! There are some good deals on older 400mm f/5.6 lenses. I have the K version that serves me well. 300mm lenses are too short and 500mm + lenses are usually too heavy. Looking forward to seeing some of your images.

Welcome to the forum, you'll find plenty of keen birds and animal photographers here for help and advice.
