Pros: Weight, tropicalization, size

Cons: Little sharpness, low light

Opinion: Taken to bring to the following during the trek, then in the rain and snow for its excellent tropicalization. Moreover its reduced weight and the limited size allow to keep it in the jacket pocket without any problems. To be used without particular photographic pretensions. To avoid Crop. Sometimes I was short, but I solved the problem using the 1.4 Pentax multiplier of which I was particularly impressed by the performance both optical and autofocus.

Pros: Weight, really small size, hood, tropicalized

Cons: Sharpness, low detail, blurry

Opinion: I bought this lens with my beloved Pentax Kr. Really compact and light, rich and saturated colors (but not distorted) and tropicalization really superb, so I'm not scared to use it under water. The detail and the definition are related to price and even more to the size, so ... really low. However, it has a pleasant soft and almost silky color range but it is not distorted or artifacts. Blurry leaves much to be desired, but if you look for a lightweight, compact lens and start banging with longer focal lengths, at the same price, there is absolutely nothing that is even less comparable, I have a lot of similar goals and No one is even a comma of this. In addition the hood helps a lot in certain backlight situations and possible flare. Aberrations practically absent even to the maximum extent. At 100-130 with f8 details and sharpness jump out, but 200 loses a little. I highly recommend

Pros: Dimensions, tropicalisation

Cons: Darkness, Sharpness

Opinion: Taken in kit a few years ago. The price to pay for a lens is so compact an image quality not quite phenomenal, both in terms of clarity of colors. The low light, given its size, is justified. It occupies very little space in your bag and is weather sealed. Excellent slow to start with long focal lengths

Pros: Compact, lightweight, tropicalization, ability to change the MAF AF, price.

Cons: Dim, poor quality at maximum aperture.

Opinion: I recently purchased this lens that I use mainly in landscape photography, the quality leaves much to be desired wide open but when used with smaller apertures f.5 0.6 to 8, the results are more than acceptable. Its greatest value is given, however, low weight and compact size, this allows you to carry it everywhere with you.

Pros: compact, lightweight, sealed, fast autofocus

Cons: dim, diafamma not constant light output

Opinion: I bought this lens along with the K7 kit and I used it a couple of years. Now replaced by the more powerful DA 55-300 ED. The optics are very compact and lightweight tropical. Good zoom range, but for certain kinds of photos is short. I've never been fully satisfied in terms of light output. A short distance of the subjects I had very good results, and with the subjects farther away never made the maximum above the maximum focal length, but here there was also the complicity of AF prong of my K7. With that problem images have improved, but I have not found too incisive to the maximum focal length compared to 55-300 AND I have now. Always compared to 55-300 ED, however, has since its a faster autofocus given by the shorter stroke and tropicalization. Replaced mainly because I needed a longer lens on the side remote, but it does its job honestly.
