I suggest perusing the 24/25mm lens tests over at 16-9.net. Here's the ZF 25/2.8 vs. the Canon 24/1.4L (the winner of their 24mm roundup, the Pentax didn't even qualify as they found the Sigma 24/2.8 SuperWide II to be superior) http://www.16-9.net/lens_tests/zf25_canon24/zeiss_zf25a.html -Adam -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
