As I've said before, this (in the 16-45) is for me a feature. Walk up to someone in the street, with the lens at 45. Point the lens slightly to their side, and zoom out. They think it's a tele, and don't assume they are the subject :) The only problem is when people look away, trying to figure out what I'm taking a picture of. Other than that, it's a good way to be invisible. j -- Juan Buhler - http://www.jbuhler.com photoblog: http://photoblog.jbuhler.com a book: http://www.jbuhler.com/book.html -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
