I don't care what anyone says, the quality of Pentax's legacy glass is reason enough for me to stick with them. I think if they were building modern versions of their high end lenses (i.e. at least a D-FA 300/2.8) they'd attract a lot more market share. I only bought the Sigma 300/2.8 because

I'm even inclined to stop obtaining new lenses and instead invest in a 1 inch superzoom like the Panasonic Lumic DC-FZ1000 or the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 types. This isn't really lightweight but it is saves me a lot of weight in my backpack as well as all the hassle to choose which lenses to ta
