I see many beautiful images in this group and unless that lens has "issues" I'd expect it to be incredibly sharp. I like shooting with a lens that has good heft, but I'd imagine the 60~250 would need its own carry strap (or wheels) before I'd take on a day outing.

Hope everyone stateside enjoyed a nice holiday weekend! Sharing some shots I took on Thanksgiving at our town's annual Turkey Trot. I brought along a newly-acquired Pentax 60-250.... after my first outings with it a couple of weeks ago, I wasn't entirely sure I was going to keep it. It's heavy... among other things... I tried using it with a monopod, but I found it awkward. I've used it at a few 5k races & for some portraits so far... my initial impression at the races was that focus was off... but that doesn't seem to be the case with stationery subjects... So, I tried to pay closer attention to my technique this last time... maybe I'm getting the hang of it. I should probably start working out if I'm going to keep it. :) http://www.flickr.com/photos/23028562@N04/sets/72157632102943391/ :) -c -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
