I traded the Tam 28-300 for the Sigma 17-70 and I think it is the right choice . Thank you very much for your opinions , I think I made the right choice because of your help , Pentaxforums community. I also bought a brand new Pentax AF360Fgz for 110$ from the same person , he was using his camera only for family photos and he never used the flash.
I think I will help people from pentaxforums too when I will get a little more experience. Thank you again!

I found a Pentax M f1.7 at 45 dollars . I think I will get it but now i really want to get that Sigma 17-70 and I want to ask you guys if it is worth to trade the Tamron 28-300 for it . It is the f2.8-4.5 version

Someone wants to trade his Sigma 17-70 f2.8-4.5 ( not the HSM version) for my tamron 28-300 . I think it is worth it .What do you guys think? Anyone with experience in this lens?

The 35mm F2.4 is 130$ and I can sell the 28-300 and get a 50-200. I think this may be a good idea: 35, 50 and 50-200. I think i will keep the 18-55 for the wide end because it got more than decent optics , the only problem may be the F3.5

The 50mm F 1.8 is at 100$ now. Are the optics good? I saw some photos made with it and they were really good . It is reduced from 250$ to 100 on Amazon. Is it worth it? Should I get the 50mm and a flash insted of a Sigma 17-70?

I had the ocasion to buy the k-50 with a 18-135 for only 100$ more and I regret that I didn't bought that kit for some time ...
Thank you all for your answers . I think I will get a Sigma 18-70 because it seems to have everything I need .
I wonder if Sigma lenses are as good as I hope them to be because Tamron ones are not really what I expected ( and I am not the only one to be disappointed by a Tamron )

Both the 1.4/50mm and the 1.7/50mm look promising. If I may ask , what does de 2.8/50mm has to offer and what would you chose betwen the 3 of them?
---------- Post added 06-19-15 at 03:20 PM ----------
I considered them but I never tried to use manual focus at portraits . I am affraid that it will be hard and I won't be able to capture the right moment. I wear eyeglasses too and I can't make the perfect focus manually.

The Sigma 24-70 got some negative reviews and everybody says is overpriced , the Sigma 17-70 looks good but the Pentax 16-85 is too expensive . If I won't find better lens in one or two weeks i will go for the 17-70 . Thank you both for your answers

I cannot afford the DA* because they are over mu budget , i have a budget of around 500$ .

Hello , i bought a k-50 1 year ago and I made some Photography courses. I familiarized with it and I want to get a new lens. I got a Tamron 28-300 for about 130$ but i just think it is not what I want for my photography career because it is made for family photography and not for a real photographer. I was just excited because the price was so good and I bought it. Now i plan to sell it for like 200-250$ and get a new lens . My photography 'teacher' uses Nikon cameras and lenses so he can't help me get the right lens. I discovered that for me , the range 90-300 is almost useless because i mostly shoot portraits and that 'street photography' . I think I need a lens betwen 40-70mm. I did some research and I found some Limited lenses at a good price . Can you guys tell me what kind of lens may be the best for me? I would really appreciate it.
