I have a Pentax K20D (DSLR) I bought in '09, I subsequently purchased a new 25-70 Pentax lense to replace the cheap Sigma lense that came with an earlier (film) camera, I also have a longer (100-200) Sigma lense. I am now disappointed with the photos from the longer lense. Initially I thought just buy a new better quality 100-200 zoom lense. But apparently Pentax are no longer fighting in the same retail space and Ford and GM (Canon and Nikon) so options are limited and expensive. Advice from retailer is to dump the lot and buy new (not surprisingly).
I think I feel like a traitor to Asahi Pentax, I bought my first SPF back in the '70s and a friend maintained them over many years. I am not a mad photographer, just trains, scenery and models (of trains). Options are:
1 Buy a new 100-200 lense to suit the K20D;
2 Buy a new kit based on Canon 200D or Nikon D5400;
3 Buy new Pentax Kit K70D;
4 Buy used 100-200 lense to suit the K20D.
Option 4 is my current preference, any other options or comments from the knowledgeable?
If used, what recommendations?
