Hey paddy567
Thanks for that. I have actually read the entire 18 pages twice :-) I still can't decide if I should go for the raynox 150 with my 55-300 kit lens or the 250 with my older M series 50mm prime lens? I really like the idea of close up insect and bee photos. which would give me the best macro shots? Which would be easier for a total beginner? Or is it better to go with a vivitar 2x teleconverter?
Sorry if I'm clueless.
:-)

Hello
I have just purchased a Pentax Kr (with DA version kit lenses). Today I bought a Pentax SMC M 50mm F1.7 Lens from ebay. Does anyone know if I can use the raynox 150 or 250 with this lens? Would I get a better macro with DCR-150 on my 55-300mm lens or the DCR-250 on my 50mm lens?
Or do I have to go with extension tubes or bellows?
Sorry for all the questions ;) I am completely new to all of this.
Thanks :)

Hello
I am new to this forum and am yet to buy my first DSLR. After reading much about the Pentax Kr I have decided to go ahead and purchase it in the twin lens pack.
I know on amazon and a few other online stores I can get the Pentax KR with DA L 18-55mm and DA L 55-300 lens for around $800 (plus $40-60 for delivery) but I don't want the DA L series lenses.
I am looking at getting the kit with the 18-55mm AL II (not DA L) and the 55-300mm (again not DA L) and it will cost me just under AUD$1000 delivered (which is equivalent to the same in USD at the moment).
My question is: is the Kr twin lens kit with these particular lenses worth almost $1000? Am I right to pay extra to get the non "L" lenses?
Thanks =)
