New Family Member

**Robin** · 10-22-2019, 08:52 AM - **5 Likes**

It's probably an abuse of this section of the forum, but I'd like to welcome the newest member of my family. The youngster is a HD Pentax DFA 150-450mm F4.5-5.6 ED DC AW

Sorry, I'm so excited I can't help sharing! And we're off together this weekend to try and catch a leopard! Oh, and the wife is coming along too...

**luftfluss** · 10-22-2019, 08:58 AM

OOOOOOHHHHHH

Charlie Victor · 10-22-2019, 09:03 AM

Congratulations! Hope you create great images and post them on here.
Best.

Thank you, I might add to that thread. This lens replaces a Sigma DG 120-400mm, and although that was a nice lens, this is worlds apart!

ghosteclipse · 10-23-2019, 04:51 AM

Wow enjoy the lens and post some pics too

Such a lovely bouncing not-so-baby lens!

Leumas · 10-25-2019, 10:53 PM

I've lusted after that lens for sometime. Let us know how you like it
