i frequently use my FA* 400/5.6 on extension tubes or with a good close-up 
lens to take pictures of flowers. it's a very good lens and holds up well 
used this way.

i have an opportunity to buy a K500/4.5 at a good price. i understand 
that's
a pretty good lens.

the only thing i am not sure is what it is good for. are there any
uses for it, other than sports and birds?
best,
