Pentax K110D and Sigma 17-35mm F2.8-4 EX DG

Hi there, hope you can help me.
I just bought ne lens Sigma 17-35mm F2.8-4 EX DG for my DSLR Pentax K110D hoping to get right lens for right camera. Lens fits perfectly its made for Pentax mount, but after taking couple shots they look exactly same like on my standard Pentax lens SMC DA 18-55mm. Can some please explain to me why wide angle Sigma lens is not giving me maximum of 103 angle view?

Kind regards,

The Penta K110D has a 1.5X crop factor so a 17mm lense would be the equivalent to 25.5mm (in 35mm standard), therefore may not give you a 103 angle view. You would not really notice that much difference between 17 and 18mm.

I just bought the lense. The Firmware on my Canon Rebel T1i adjust automatically to my two Canon lenses, but show that I have to download firmware for the Sigma lens. Where do I get that?

Hi,

There is no update for the Sigma lens since it is inter-related to the update you do for your camera, however you can check if there is any update available for your Canon Camera and it should automatically fix any issues you have with the lens/camera.

Hope this is helpful.

Cant seem to fit the converter to a 50-500mm ex sigma lens ?

It all depends upon the lens. Not all lenses can accept teleconverters, usually due to projecting rear elements incorporated into the individual lens design. With such lenses, manufacturers will either advise that a particular lens will not be compatible with a teleconverter or for some models may produce a custom matched model usually for that lens alone.

Which exact lens are you trying to fit to your Sigma 1.4x EX APO DG teleconverter?

135-400mm lens on nikon d40

Unfortunately, this lens is not supported by the D40 due to Nikon's unfortunate decision to leave out the autofocus motor from this camera.  This is why I tell folks not to waste their money on the D40 - access to the many, many, many lenses that Nikon has made over the years, many of which are available used for a substantial savings, is lost on this camera.  The only Nikon lenses that work are AF-S lenses, and some third party lenses that have their own internal motors.  I got a list of Sigma lenses that are compatible with the D40 for you:
The list of compatible Sigma lenses for the Nikon D40 as of the current date is as follows:
  • 10-20mm F4-5.6 EX DC
  • 12-24mm F4.5-5.6
  • 17-35mm F2.8-4 DG
  • 50-500mm F4-6.3 DG
  • APO 50-150mm F2.8 EX DC HSM
  • 70-200mm F2.8 DG MACRO
  • 80-400mm F4.5-5.6
  • 100-300mm F4 DG
  • 120-300mm F2.8 DG
  • 300-800mm F5.6 DG
  • 14mm F2.8 EX
  • 30mm F1.4 EX DC HSM
  • 150mm F2.8 EX DG
  • 180mm F3.5 EX DG
  • 300mm EX DG
  • 500mm EX DG
  • 800mm f5.6 EX DG
from here:  http://www.imaging-resource.com/NEWS/1177682545.html
Sorry for the bad news.  The cheaper thing at this point may be to sell the D40 and get a D80.  I personally have a D70S, but that is no longer made.
