<snip> Also on Pentax Kx you can even use 40 years old Pentax K mount lenses and even M42 thread mount lens using an adapter. In caseayou can get Pentax Kx from US also purchase M42 to K mount adapter and available lenses on e-bay, Specially an old Pentax Supar Takumar AF 50 mm 1.4 lens , This will cost you less then 50 mm prime 1.8 for canon. <snip> |
I am planning to rent the 200-400 next weekend for a bandipur trip |
I got them used for 32k. Only 4 shots taken from that lens. The owner was selling all his DX gear since he was upgrading to a FX. The lens is in straight out of the box condition. |

Please don't bother with Nikon 200mm f4 macro/micro, unless it the old Dental Kit. You will hate it otherwise. Don't get me wrong, its a great lens but without IS and major breathing issues, it falls short on many fronts. Old dental kit, now that is something to keep forever but i doubt one can find it selling anywhere. Ps:- Dental kit included continuous lightning with focusing and diffuser. |

:Shockked:This is the first time ever I see that someone says don't bother with the nikkor 200mm!!! This is one lens that is sworn by many for their macro shots. Hmm, wonder why it'd be difficult to shoot without IS? I think and believe that to shoot macros at 1:1, tripod is a MUST. My guru uses this lens and trust me I haven't seen anything like that ever and is a very well acknowledged photographer across many forums (like NPN, NSN etc). |

Can some one suggest a good and sturdy tripod available in Bangalore ? Or online purchase I have one tripod which I got free with my JVC handycam but the fitting on the head is cumbersome as it was meant for handy-cam and not DSLR. Before someone says Monfratto Let me mention I am not a pro and do not intend to burn that big hole in pocket. I know it can be kept for a decade but still my usage do not justify that cost. |

Can anyone give me a price check on Canon EF-S 18-200mm? I would like the grey market price from Delhi (Alfa, etc.) and Mumbai. Thank you for your time |

Try getting only a ballhead. See if it fits your remeasurement. 486 costs around 4k I think. |
