1) I recently bougth the K5. It came with two lenses (SMC PENTAX DA 18-55MM F3.5-5.6 AL WR and SMC PENTAX DA 50-200MM F4-5.6 ED WR). I
have been reading reviews about these lenses and they aren't very good so I am planning to replace then.
2) Also, I am very keen on macro photography and I am planning to buy a macro lens as the lenses that came with my camera aren't ideal for macro
photography. My first choice is the smcP D-FA 50mm f2.8 Macro and my second choice is the smc Pentax DA 35mm f/2.8 Macro Limited. My
budget is to spend no more than £250. I found a website selling the smcP D-FA 50mm f2.8 Macro for £244.58. I tought perhaps I could find a 2nd
hand lens which are better than the smcP D-FA 50mm f2.8 and for similar price. Can anyone tell me whether the smcP D-FA 50mm f2.8 is a good
macro lens and where I can find 2nd hand lenses for Pentax.
3) To fulfil my ambitions as a photographer I need one day to day lens, one telephoto lens (to take shots of surf) and one macro lens Very tight
budget!!)
