It's a nice lens, but it's a little long for an all-purpose zoom. The
DA 16-45 is better suited to that purpose. The two make an excellent
pair.

Hey gang.
Just wondering if anyone has used the Pentax A2XL Tele on Sigma
lenses. I now Christian
suggested to
use the Sigma APO EX 1.4 with my Sigma 300 F4, but i have to ask.:-)
I'll also include the A1.4 XL in that quiry.
I also noticed on the web site there is an S version of both. Is the L
version the
"better" one. Do
you have AF if you use M lenses.??
Now the DA question:
My sister is enjoying her istD but only has a manual focus lens and is
not enjoying that
to much due
to eye sight problems and other things.
I think the newish DA 50(or is it 55) to 200 variable ap. zoom might
be ok for her. Its in
her price
range.
I know several on the list have it, just wondering if that would be a
good lens for
someone who just
uses a camera for basic photography,garden shots and her cats.:-)
Would you say its a good all purpose, but nothing fancy lens.
