Pentax HD PENTAX D FA* 70-200mm f/2.8 ED DC AW Lens 21330 B&H



Drool. This is the lowest I have seen.
So either the sales number for the year are not met or there is a D-FA*70-200ii with ring motor in the pipe.

but B&H shipped it so that i have to sign for the package?????

I know it can be frustrating, and I've had to scramble to have someone around to sign too, but then when I just ordered the D FA 24-70, and it was supposed to be overnight delivery, and somehow it landed in a city 2.5 hours away, I was really happy it had a signature required. Too valuable a thing to have it disappear with no explanation and be out the money with the vendor and shipper all saying, "not their problem." Hang in there - think it'll be worth it. The 24-70 was!

Just as i expected, first they delay my delivery, now today they try to deliver it at a stupid time when no one is home. I live in an apartment complex and there is always someone in the office but B&H shipped it so that i have to sign for the package?????

I am not a UPS fan, especially with the numerous screw-ups this year but BH asking for a signature on $1500 lens is standard. It would be very irresponsible of B&H not to ask for a signature. You can ask UPS to delivery it to a UPS retail location. There are lots of them around. All of this is one of the often overlooked negatives with shopping online.

Your address is visible on the packaging. Might want to edit it out.
Oh, and congratulations on the lens!

Congratulations...

Also your iPhone 7 picture exif has a GPS location stamp on it. Do you always keep that turned on.. it tags every photo you take with the GPS location it seems.

what is wrong with indoor photos

I think you are stalling and building up the anticipation

Well you made me do it, i did not want to make my first impressions of this lens taking indoor photos. I have always disliked most photos taken with all my Pentax gear and made the big mistake mentioning it on the forum and got kicked in the nuts very swiftly. I set up my lens cal and had to make a slight adjustment (-2) than i took a few of my mounted 10lb large mouth, comparing between the Tamron 70-200 and could not see any difference at f2.8. I will take it to my sisters at the beach today and give it a good workout and give a more definitive opinion!
