Digital camera reviews of Pentax DA 18-250mm f/3.5-6.3 ED AL IF Lens for Pentax and Samsung Digital SLR Cameras

Digital camera Review: A Great all round lens
Summary: 5 Stars

It has a great handling, good size & feel to it.

It is not a fast lens. But, as most 18-200mm & 18-250mm lens owners know, this is a weekend or short trip lens that covers a great range.

The quality is up there along Nikon 18-200mm VR.
