Re: Mad Lenses on *ist D

[Mark Cassino]

I gave the A* 400 f2.8 and 1.7x AF adapter a whirl one day last week, 
shooting at the birds around my feeders. For random pot shots at birds, not 
even trying to get close, I'm very impressed with the image quality. Can't 
wait to do some serious birding with it.

Some sample from the half hour I spent near the feeder:

Okay, here's a poser for you *ist D users. What's the maddest lens you've
had on your Pentax DSLR?
Gotta be the A*135mm f/1.8 ? Anyone tried that?

Anyone using the brilliant A*85mm f/1.4?

Anyone tried the 600 f/4?

Anyone mad as a hatter out there?



Cheers,
