I may feel over-confident, or maybe i think i'm idiot myself, yeah, i tried to impress some hot chicks in the beach, so i paid a price.....
but i guess my case could be "18-135 can't do"
K70+18-135 against beach water on sand ground, a small tide suddenly slapped both 2!
so how the result after?
+ The K70 body survive wonderfully, but some sands made shutter button stucks, i have fixed that by pouring water to make sand out, the shutter button live again!
+ The 18-135 survive, seem like there is no dust, water come inside, wow really? but what are the bad things?
* AF stopped working, only MF
* Aperture jumping around 3.5-4 at 18mm, confuse exposure metering, smaller F cause overexposure
* Can't switch live view, if i do so, the camera automatically switch for to VF mode, but movie mode is fine, but unable to enter menu settings, oop!
i tried attach other len, everything worked normal, so i knew 18-135 really broken now!
please guy, don't ever try that!

seem like new lightroom feature "Enhance Detail" can be a new hope for improving 18-135...!

now, it's turned up 2.5 years for me using 18-135, and alots of zooming on many weather conditions, until now i didn't see any dirt, moisture in
that mean the WR seals effective and still going strong
the SP fluorine is also a big bless for easier cleaning without too much babysiting, the front surface still new shiny like fresh virgin
the len is such great example of crop ideal travelzoom len should be
The Nikon, Canon, Sony, Tamron, Sigma ones made me disappointed, they think those features are just too luxury to add on low consumer products
i also look at Fujifilm and Olympus ones, that look similar level as Pentax, but not sure if there are fluorine
now i really hope that pentax can release a HD version, or maybe a little bit more range like 18-250, 18-300

i totally come back 18-135 and really enjoy using it :lol: "superior quality" isn't my concern anymore, i mostly upload my photo to social website so what matter the most now for me is the content of the photos!;)
didn't mean i not going to get any new len, i have plan starting my architecture photo service so i gonna aim for wide len, maybe 15mm
btw, 18-135 is also work quite effectively for shooting wedding, event where cilent just want "hey, did you get photos?"

i just sold 40mm HD and 70mm HD and right now i'm thinking about "meaning of life"
those two limited primes maybe hell-yeah-sharp for me to be drooling over table but i found they also "limited" my photography as well, in...a lot of circumstances
hmm...maybe i should feel regret for wasting money, i supposed invest into something else
now i returned 18-135, the revelation has never been much clearer than before

impressive flare resistance for such a consumer 2011 kit zoom len, bravo SMC coating!
i still remember my canon era, when i using 18-55, at this situation, sure the len will get terrible ghosting, flare issue!
looking forward to HD version...someday!
