Question from Kerry: “Can any one recommend macro lense for a Pentax k20d. not many people shoot with Pentax, do I am not sure if any one can help.”
Slpaok: The Tamron 90 mm macro is AWESOME and very cost effective!
Slpaok: PS – you can see some of my shots taken with that lens by viewing my album section…
David: switch to Canon
Slpaok: Also, I use a teleconverter with a prime pentax 50mm lens now and then. Very cost effective – fast lens – nice boken.
Kerry: No switching, Pentax has the built in image stabilization in the body add one selling point for me.
Matt: I shoot digital with Nikon and use my Pentax for the real dirty work. The 90 macro is a good choice
Heather: Love my Pentax as well!
Jennifer: – the Tamron 28 – 75 is pretty good, it’s not as close as a true macro, but I’ve gotten so very nice close focusing and it’s also a great portrait lens as well. I’ve used it on both my K20d and my K5.
Justina: I use a 60mm macro from sigma with my Pentax. Takes stunning ring shots
Kerry: hanks heaps, nice to know that there are some Pentax lovers out there.
