A plant trying to grow out from its limits. The owner cuts it out once a month, but it never gives up. The "FENCE" can't hold it in.

Hi Jonathan,
Yes, I have already read those reviews. But it's sort of difficult to choose once using the given information. So I am expecting to get an advice from one who has enough experience on both lenses.
Thank you for the reply.
PS: Ah.. yes... It's a fantastic lens. Bit have to get used to focus properly. And I found that it's quite soft at the wide open.

Hi,
I own Pentax A 35-105mm f/3.5, Pentax A 35-70mm f/4, Pentax M 50mm f/1.4 and Pentax DAL 18-55mm kit lens for my Pentax K-x body. I decided to expand my range and eying at Pentax DA 50-200mm f/4-5.6 ED (Used) or Sigma 50-200mm F4-5.6 DC OS HSM (New). I can buy new Sigma 50-200 for 18,00 Japanese Yen or used Pentax 50-200mm for 10,000 Japanese yen. But I don't have enough information for make a choice. I expect a little help from you guys.
Thank you.
PS: As an additional option, I can go for a Sigma 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG MACRO for 13,000 JPY.

Hi Guys...
I am sorry for the late reply.
Yes, you were correct. 35-105mm is a great lens. I just had to get used to it. I could not do the comparison with Sigma lens and I do not want to do that since I found I can get what I need from Pentax lens. I am attaching some photos I took with it in this post.
However, I am thinking I need more reach so I decided to buy a 50-200mm lens. Again I have 2 choices. First is the Sigma lens, the Sigma 50-200mm f/4-5.6 OS HSM (new) for 18,000 Japanese Yen. And can go for a Pentax DA 50-200mm f/4-5.6 ED (used) for 10,000 Japanese Yen. (I am going to put this as a fresh post)
What do you recommend me?
Regards! |

Thank you very much for the reply. So, do you think I could capture better pictures if I use a Sigma lens with my camera? Is it worth to do a replacement?

Hi Guys...
I am new for the forum as well as photography, but i've been reading your posts for long time... :)
I bought a Pentax k-x and I was looking for a good lens for that. I did a survey and at the end I had to choose between Pentax A 35-105 f/3.5 and Sigma 50-200mm f/4-5.6 OS. After reading many positive comments on Pentax lens, I purchased Pentax lens.
Now I feel the pictures are not good as those produces by Sigma lens. My friend owns a Sigma 50-200mm OS attached to Nikon D5100. We took pictures of the same object in same time and those photos easily beat mines. I am wondering which one is the problem, Lens? Camera? or Me? Me and my friend are leveled in knowledge on photography, that is we are very beginners. :)
I am looking for some helpful comments from you.
