I've been offline the last week and marked my inbox as read.
In the meantime I found a nice copy of the Tamron 18-250. What a
beauty! It's not DA* or limited quality but it's a very pleasant
surprise. Why Pentax dumped it's DA18-250 version is a mystery to me.
It outperforms the DA18-55 and DA50-200, I think it's somewhere (or
very close) in the DA16-45 and DA55-300 class which results in a
excellent walk around lens for holidays etc. Even 250mm is
surprisingly good.

Every so often, I'm a little disappointed in it, but just as often I'm surprised at how sharp it is. For a "do everything" lens, it is amazingly good.

FWIW, my photo in the show was shot with it.
