Hi Fred

No need to sorry for the picture size. Take it as a compliment when I wnat
to see them bigger ;-)


thanks for your report on the A28-135 zoom.
I found it not to ve very well balanced with the ME Super, maybe I should
try again with a bigger body.
greetings
Markus

>>I do love the lens.  Despite its weight (which doesn't usually bother me

>>For me, the lens has a pretty useful range (the 28-135/4, plus an A 20/2.8
>>and either the A* 300/4 of the F* 300/4.5, make a pretty good all-around
>>kit for many outings), it's built like the proverbial tank, is optically
>>quite good (for a zoom, of course - it's very similar to its sibling, the
>>often-discussed A 35-105/3.5), and it has very nice bokeh.
>>
>>The number one comment that one seems to hear/read about the lens (here on
>>the PDML) is "heavy" or "weight", but that's the least important lens
>>characteristic to me (under most circumstances) when choosing a lens.
>>
>>I have a few shots taken with the lens on the Pentax Lens Gallery at
