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: Super Lens
Summary: 5 Stars

Lens so far works perfectly with my Pentex K20D. At this time it is the only lens I am using and still getting aquainted with all the camera's features.

Digital camera Review: The one lens for my DSLR
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this lens with a Pentax k20d and I have to say that although not perfect, the very minor problems there are don't bother me in the least. Some very slight purple edges show up, but only if the lens is fully zoomed in or fully zoomed out. And I only see them if I digitally zoom in so far that I can't make out what the picture is anymore. The autofocus seems a tad slow, but not enough to bother me.

But being able to get the wide shot and a second later zoom in great. For how versatile this lens is, how good the images it takes are, and its cost you just can't go wrong with this lens.

Digital camera Review: Must Have Walk-Around Lens
Summary: 4 Stars

We've had this lens for a few weeks now and it cannot be beat for it's all-around versatility! Produces sharp shots and surprisingly good macro results. If you shoot mostly outdoors with ample natural light this is pretty much the lens to get if you want a quality lens with a good price to performance ratio. Tamron makes an 'identical' model, and Pentax model may even be made by Tamron but with the Pentax coatings; however, the Pentax version has thus far been the most attractively priced.

Digital camera Review: All purpose lens
Summary: 4 Stars

I own the kit lens with K100D and a Quantaray zoom for sports. Needed something to take portraits and have zoom capability. This one fits the bill and helps keep the sensor clean by not having to change out lenses.
Focus ring a little hard to turn and auto focus slightly noisy.
Solid feel and lock mechanism is handy. Will probably rate 5 once I have enough shots to compare.


Digital camera Review: Pentax DA 18-250mm for Pentax Digital Camera
Summary: 5 Stars

Pentax DA 18-250mm f/3.5-6.3 ED AL IF Lens for Pentax and Samsung Digital SLR Cameras
This is the ONE lens you need for almost all shooting - The Auto focus does not perform quite as well at the 250mm setting, however the 18mm angle to 200mm is so good we still give it FIVE stars - We highly recommend this lens for all around shooting. It will produce excellent picture quality and at an affordable price for amateur photo shooting - We paid $429.00 through Amazon from Willoughbly's for this lens - Pentax got this one just right!
