@Bjoern: Hi, thanks for your recommendation. I was looking something bigger, like a 50-300 <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' />, I've read about them, the best seems to be the 50-300 from pentax, but the others are quite good, judging some shots on flickr/amazon.
@arv: I've just checked Ebay and I only see one, seems to be cheap and good. Thanks. Anyway, I would try to get a new one if I can.

I had the Tamron 70-300 before. It is a good lens for the money but bad CA so the IQ appearence is not to good at the long end. Also not great in contrast. Go for the pentax 55-300 otherwise you pay for two lenses. First for a cheap one a year later or so for a expensive one.
have fun
