    Re: "Walk Around" Lens question

    Start with whatever comes with the camera, or something like it. As you gain experience, you'll know what other lenses you need.

    Re: "Walk Around" Lens question

    tamon 18 x 200 at 200mm.. pentax k100d



    at 28mm..



    a macro form the same lens..



    a 100% crop of birds sat on the bridge visible in the 18mm landscape shot..taken at 200mm from the same spot..



    pic of the lens itself for a size idea..



    trog

    ps.. full frame images except for the birds.. .. jpegs straight from the camera no post process enhancements.. a few pics are worth a thousand words even if they are just lens test pics.. and they have all been pixel peeped and compared with primes at 100%.. and they are all good enough to print A3 if u wish to..

    sorry for my over emphasizes but i have got a bit bored with the standard tamron 18 x 200 comments from people who have never used one..

    at 200mm its not a fast action sports lens but thats why i team mine up with the sigma apo 70 x 300 unless u want to spend thousands for the same coverage u wont better the combo..

    my camera plus lens weighs in at 1140 grams..
