Latest Review Posted | Sigma EX DG APO 500mm F4.5 Considering the lack of long lens in Pentax line up, unless you are thinking of buying some that would cost cost an arm and a leg, and wish not to lose your arm from the weight of the lens if you bought the ones like 250-600(especially when mounted ona tripod that weighs, you do the math), then, this is the lens for you., I give this lens a 9.5 as I am used to Nikon AFS 500 F4 lens and I know how fast it locks on, but Pentax compensates for that with their camera body(K-5) in my opinion and, this lens certainly matches my FA*300F2.8 as for the focus speed but lags in IQ that can be made up PP I think.
I will post some images soon.
Don't know if I should mention this but, I bought it from B&H and I think they have some in stock as I post this.
