Those photos are sweeet! Credit the lens if you want but kudos to the
shutter pusher. Meandered thru your site some nice stuff there.
I can't say as I have become attached to any lens yet, but they are all
better than I need for the most part.

Darren,
They can sell the A*135/1.8 when I'm dead.
(Fred Wasti can re-purchase it if he outlives me.)
It's big, heavy and un-equaled in image quality on film.
I've also really come to like the DA*60-250/4 zoom.
The image quality is great and it's not to big to carry around.
I saw a landscape and wildlife photographer talk last night.
He tried to avoid talking about equipment.
But he mentioned humping around a big Canon 600mm.
He had some moose pictures, and suggested 'keeping your distance.'
Here's an early shot from 2010 with my K-7 and DA60-250/4.
The young male was so close I had to pull the zoom back to 200mm.
And you can't believe how big these animals really are.

I use the DA*60-250/4 on the K-5 with a battery grip now and my images
are better,
but it is such killer lens.
