Thanks and you read my mind....I probably will end up purchasing a dedicated macro lens at some point in time. I have some older Pentax equipment from my film days, sigma 100-200 macro, sigma 28-80, pentax 100mm which I can experiment with. Appreciate all the information and kindness from everyone for my first posting.

Believe I will purchase a pentax 50-135 lens. But looking for good extension tubes so I can experiment with some macro on this lens. Any suggestions on good extension tubes greatly appreciated.

Nice idea, but I've been searching for Kenko extension tube for pentax and no luck finding any so far?

Great insight and yes I'm more "rounded" in my photography, and that's why I worried I might not be satisfied having a 90mm range vs. the zoom range of the 50-135. I enjoy macro but it's not my main "focus". What's the feeling of extension tube(s) being used on the 50-135 zoom for macro since I'm trying to narrow it to one lens for the time being?
Thanks.

New to forum and appreciate your input. Have a K200D camera with lens 18-55 II smc da. I almost purchased the Pentax 50-135 zoom but would like macro feature, so I'm looking at the Tamron 90mm macro lens. Is this a good choice? Still somewhat torn on giving up the zoom for macro, but need to make choice on one lens for now. I have the Pentax K200D, I assume the Tamron will be compatible with this model.
Thanks again.:)
