Pros: Lightweight, weather sealed, good for fotorndi family. it is cheap.

Cons: Dark, dark without particolari.rn merits

Opinion: Agree with fed83er dark darkness makes you raise the ISO to the newly purchased along with decent pictures k5 thought I had taken a painful machine (passed by the canon 40d) rnCambiata otticha me another world RNLA k5 is open and coming out in all its splendor. RNLA Pentax should not give in kit with machines of a certain prestige to totally devalues.

Pros: good compromise between sharpness, resolution, lightweight, practical. The front lens group does not rotate dirante the focus, is equipped with an excellent lens hood with removable door for the management of the filters polarizzatori.rntra abiettivi accompanying cameras just purchased, supplied and of first purchase is definitely the best. rnrnDà a feeling of stability which is not found in the same level of other competitors casern

Cons: Vignette of a stop and a half the focus distance: nothing irreconcilable, but it exists. Distortion at 18mm, but within limits accettabili.rnLeggero drop in sharpness at 55mm, known to be more dedicated to portraits to landscapes.

Opinion: I think it is a lens of excellent optical and constructive, for what it costs. It is sold with the cameras: diffficile is not to buy it. Compared to the 16-45 f4 the difference is not enough to justify the move, but compared to 16-50 * Star f2, 8 the difference is (spending but from 850 to 900 euro) rnrn

Opinion: is the kit lens for pentax, nothing like that risolvenza, but I must say that holds great reflections and flare. can be comfortable in his version, tropical for cheap, but if you do not already included in the kit acquisterei.alcune kit versions are not equipped with a bayonet lens hood and have plastica.rna part in keeping the sun better to spend the money elsewhere way!
