10mm F2.8 EX DC HSM Fisheye Refurbished | Sigma Corporation of America
I was inspired to post this deal here because of a thread on slickdeals for a Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM ART - Refurbished $679 (Canon Mount). I wanted to see what they might have for Pentax and found the refurb 10mm F2.8 EX DC HSM Fisheye for $489 free shipping, no tax outside of NY. I am still learning with what I have for now, hope this helps someone save some $.

Hi. I am new to dslr photography and image processing. I got a K-3 in late January with a Pentax SMCP-DA 50mm f/1.8 lens and a used Pentax 55-300MM F/4-5.8. I have been wanting to get into dslr photography for several years but it was put off by one reason or another (life) and partly because I couldn't decide which brand or camera to go with- so many options, so many opinions. I enjoy my point and shoot cameras, which have all been Canon. They took good pictures and I had pretty good luck with in terms of durability. So it was a little leap of faith for me to switch brands. I went with the K-3 because it has a great list of features for the price. I like taking pictures outdoors, so it being weather/dust resistant is great. The Flu card is pretty cool and I really really like that you don't have to install another app and keep it up to date. No big complaints so far but I am a little annoyed with the fact that the camera firmware information is not up-to-date across all sites:
Downloads & Literature - RICOH Imaging
versus
Latest K-3 Firmware Update : Software Downloads | RICOH IMAGING
My camera was shipped with the latest firmware but I was curious to the update process and what changes/ fixes were made between the different versions.
I've been learning from lurking/searching on various forums and purchased Yvon Bourque's K-3 ebook. I've processed my first RAW image today using the Ricoh Digital Camera Utility 5 that was included with the camera. I have Picasa installed but it wasn't displaying the RAW files. I used it to crop the jpg. I have a copy Adobe LR 5 that shipped with a printer but haven't installed it yet.
There's my DSLR life story so far. Usually it's hard to get two words out of me....
