Well, I can't say anything about any of those lenses except the FA 20-35/4. I really love mine. It's light, reasonably compact, and sharp. It doesn't have the build quality or MF feel of M or A lenses (or even FA primes), but I've trekked hundreds of miles with mine stuffed into the top of my pack. All the wide angle shots here were taken with that lens mounted on a program plus: http://bigdayphoto.com/tom/co_thumbs.html The one drawback to this lens is that there might be a QC issue. Someone on the list went through 3 of them before he got one that performed well. I, otoh, got one that was fine on the first try. I regularly make 11x14's from mine. tv - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
