I got a new lens for my Pentax K100D digital SLR camera. It's a Pentax 50-200 zoom. It's very compact, light and from the few test photos I took in the back yard, seems fairly sharp.
It didn't focus as fast as I'd like it to in auto focus mode. It often took several attempts to focus on the Bumble-Bee and Dragonfly. But I'm an old timer, and I'm used to manual focusing, so it's not that big a deal if I have to.
Overall, it seems like a very nice lens, but I'd like to try some action photography with it to see how she handles.
P.S. Too bad you can't see these full size. They look spectacular when displayed full screen on my MacBook.
