Nice kit lens replacement to have

I bought this lens as a replacement for my DA 18-55mm the K100D came with. It provides the same image quality (quite good for this type of lenses) with an increase in zoom range. Expect for an increase in size and weight as well. Here is how the max aperture throughout zoom range goes: 18-19mm: F3.5 20-29mm: F4 30-69mm: F4.5 70-125mm: F5.6 Bottom line: nice walkaround lens, reduces the need for changing lenses.

About Sigma 18mm - 125mm f/3.5-5.6 DC Autofocus Zoom Lens for Pentax Digital SLR Cameras.

This zoom lens was exclusively* designed for use with digital Single-Lens Reflex (SLR) cameras and has 6.9 times high magnification zoom ratio.

A Special Low Dispersion (SLD) and two pieces of aspherical glass elements produce high level of optical performance through the entire zoom range and alsothis has resulted in a compact, lightweight lens that features a length of 77.7mm (3"), maximum diameter of 70mm (2.7"), weight of 385gr (13.5oz) and filter size of just 62mm

The new lens coating reduces flare and ghost, which is a common problem of digital cameras and also creates an optimum color balance

This lens has a minimum focusing distance of 50cm (19.6") at all focal lengths and has maximum magnification of 1:5.3. It is equipped with inner focusing system, since the front of the lens does not rotate, "Petal-type hood" and a circular polarizing filter can be easily attached and used. This lens is also equipped with Zoom Lock Switch that eliminates "Zoom Creep"

*35mm or APS SLR film cameras should not be used or image cut-off or vignetting will occur
