Paul, I made a resolution to steer away from limited image circle lenses. DA* are not an option for me. Also, Kostas is right about the price tag. My major range is 31, 43, 77 and 28-75, occasionally 18-35 and sometimes beyond 77 mm. Ideally I would like to have 80-320 in a shell of 100-300 (internal zooming). In fact, I am willing to shell out for FA* 200/2.8 but this is really hard to come by these days.
