Hi All out there,
Well yesterday I discovered this mailing list.
I'm an amateur photographer for 15 years in the Netherlands.
that you have experiance with theSMC F*28 - 70 F2.8AL zoom
Up till now I used the LX and Pentax prime lenses, favorits are FA24mm F2 and the
M100mm macro 4.0,
when weigth is no problem I also take the K35/2 and K135/2.5 with me
I Like them for there sturdy build, and am satisfied with the optical quality.
Most of the time I can anticipate on the situation and choose the right (prime)lens
But, sometimes it takes just too much time to change lenses, autofocus and a zoom
lenses are handy,
Since I own a nice range of lenses I will stay with Pentax. Else I would have bought a
Nikon F100 + 24~85/F 2.8~4
or a Canon EOS3 with 28~135 IS
Well I did bought the MZ-S but the 24-90 mm did not felt solid at all. It is said
that the optics are quit good.
My mind is circling around the FA 28 - 70 F2.8 / Tokina 28-70/80 F2.8 or sigma
24/28-70 F2.8
or should I be more carefull and opt for the FA24~90 3.5 ~4.5, FA28~105 4.0~5.6 or
Tamron 24~135 3.5~5.6
The best would be 24 ~ 135 with speed of 1.4 and only 200 grams but thats not possible
Is the FA28-70F2.8 optical still the best I can get or is it oldfashioned?
Any advice would be nice.
