Hi Patrick, I've been watching this thread with interest as I'm looking for a good 200mm+ zoom. I've always thought the 70-200 f2.8 was too heavy and not quite long enough. I've seen some really nice pictures from the Sigma 100-300, but I've seen some with very annoying bokeh too that have put me off a little (I've noticed this with a few Sigma lenses).
Then I heard of the DA*60-250 and I thought it sounded "just right". Now I have to sit and wait for it to be available - and then for it to be available in Australia. I'm hoping for some good 10MP examples with it before I can get my hands on it to prove that it's good. A DA* lens should be very good shouldn't it? Has Pentax made any duds in their high end lenses? -- Leon http://www.bluering.org.au http://www.bluering.org.au/leon Patrick Genovese wrote: > Thanks for the info...
