Great... need some suggestion...

I've bought 18-270mm problem with this lens is .. its not specifically designed for any type just random travel carrying lens to avoid extra lenses.... After long discussion with Pentax Experts @ Pentaxforum, majority preffered 50-135 .... The problem i am facing with 18-270mm is lil blurry images... even i tried with different shutter App and expo settings but still failed to produce... please recommand me

50-135 f/2.8? never used it and it seems to be high end stuff. Below is taken using 18-135 f/3.5-5.6. If this lens is to be taken as base, 50-135 will definitely be amazing. At what range your 18-270 giving blurry pic? it usually happens at extremes (of focal length and f-stop)...

You are one hell of camera enthusiast. Take good pictures and post and if you go to Umra post pictures from there too.

In low light, all images are blurry especially above 200.... I am much into motorsports, Aviation and big cats (Wildlife) photography... going for FA 77mm LE edition silver for close shots... most popular Pentax lens... and return 18-270mm maybe with 18-135 or 50-260mm Pentax

The best thing in my new gear is world most advance card Eye-fi Mobi Pro 32GB and world fastest card SCT 64 GB SDXC.... 100 GBUz, loaded with my Pentax -16 ;)

Photoshop, Photomatix for HDR ( reason of using photoshop ovet Lightroom is, IM expert pro in PS). Generally photographers use Lightroom.

Can you explain what is the use of HDR and how it works? I always found it a big dogy. Looking to buy my first DSLR soon.

FA 77 looks amazing.... Pentax unfortunately has limited third party telephoto lenses and pentax super telephoto lenses cost a fortune....
 
@Stealth Double congratulations :) Your gear looks awesome. I have few queries, if you could answer

1. How much did the gear cost?
2. Why Pentax and not Nikkon or Cannon where a wide range of lenses are available and also many cheap alternatives too.
3. Does WIFI card allows remote click via mobile? Or its just for data transfers only?
