I've been lurking here and reading and am dead set on buying the Pentax K10D for my first DSLR. I have owned a couple of lower end film SLR's like a Pentax ZX-10 and a Minolta Maxxum 7. I'm going to go ahead and get the kit lens with the K10D as I've read it's a good lens and it's only $50 more at B&H. I'm also going to get the Pentax 50mm/f1.4 lens. But I want a good all around lens. I do a lot of traveling all over the world with my job, and want a good lens for anything I happen to see. I won't be able to carry a whole lot of stuff with me. I like to take pictures of people, nature, birds, etc. The lens I'm interested in is the Pentax SMCP-DA 18-250mm f/3.5-6.3 ED AL (IF). I can't find much info about it as far as reviews go. It's $500. Do you guys think it's worth the $500? Anybody own one of these lenses or something similar? Thanks!
